Ideation Group Mission Statement

To meet once every 6-8 weeks and provide nascent entrepreneurs an interactive forum with “Valley of Death” survivors so that they may develop awareness of an array of entrepreneurial skills and devices that allowed exciting new companies, services, and technologies to beat the odds and compete in the marketplace with a minimum of capital infusion.

Meetings themes will include (among others):

• Salient differences and benefits of bootstrapped and venture financed companies
• What to expect in the Valley of Death and preparing yourself to survive it
• The Supreme importance of Faith in “yourself and your cause”
• The use of Myers/Briggs psychological to determine whether you and your team have the psyche for the job ahead
• Group discussions and answers to member defined problems

While meetings will occasionally include special guest speakers, the goal for the Ideation Group is to function as a support group that encourages and assists entrepreneurs in-the-making with experienced counsel and opportunities to seek out mentors from a pool of individuals who have been there and done that!
