Entrepreneur Events in London
I found a few web sites dedicated to New Business Based in and around London, one of which focuses on the Health sector and Health start up companies which I, being an invalid, found interesting.
The first is called FLYING START and it's for serious people who have a plan and an idea that they have almost just started to develop!
You have to be in a pretty pivotal business position for this 12 month course that will get you on your horse and well on the way to success.
You should have contacts and leads and identified markets and consumers, but just not started seriously yet! Hmmm it's a great idea with Entrepreneurs on hand to help out, but I think they'll have to be a bit more relaxed with their entry requirements to make any profit which I'm sure they will be forced to do.
The next are Events set out by London and South East based Universities for new and impressive Business minds.

AmAzing site for Entrepreneurs
I love this site - it's basically a treasure trove of information.
You'll find a lot of new start ups, mainly in web based companies. There are some really great ideas out there that have already been done.
There must be thousands way ahead of us already, time to get your thinking hats on.
Here is one Google video I discovered through this site somehow which you have to see because it is absolutely wonderfully amusingly stupidly super.
Spanish Mortgages and Property site
I have recently been speaking with a friend of mine called Dan. A budding artist with some really wonderful work. He has been designing websites for over 5years now and one site that grabbed my attention was his property in Spain site and also mortgages in Spain.
I was just chatting with him about the poor returns he has been having on Clickbank - more or his affiliate earnings actually come from Google Adsense. Isn't that interesting.
and as that’s a free tool to use I don't think it's going to be rivaled by anything else as good - so better make use of it now.
The sites that made use of their extensive contacts database in Spain are the following they are there to help people and advise people on buying and renting in Spain as well as other financial matters.
Here is the site about Spanish mortgages
and also the site for Spanish property
A few sites he also mentioned to help you guys learn about HTML and CSS are the following:
