The room was in absolute awe as Levi Roots stressed the importance of having a strong community for those leaping into entrepreneurship. “Having a community such as The Budding Entrepreneur Club is so important for entrepreneur’s as building and growing a business is all about surrounding yourself with the right people"

Ollie Forsyth is on a mission to create a community where entrepreneurs can come together, exchange ideas, unite and inspire one another. The launch of The Budding Entrepreneurs Club, in partnership with The Office Group is his first step to creating such an network.

On September 14th The TBE Club officially launched at The Shard, with guest speakers Levi Roots, Alfie Best and Felipe Alviar-Baquero and over 200 budding entrepreneurs came together to support the cause. Individuals from all different backgrounds and industries attended The TBE Club launch which was an incredible success.

The TBE Club has the potential to unite and inspire the entrepreneurs of tomorrow and it will be interesting find out what members will achieve in the coming the years.

On founding the TBE Club Ollie said "I want to bring a diverse and interesting range of entrepreneurs together on a monthly basis. Having met some inspiring entrepreneurs myself over the last few years, I have learnt the significance of networking and meeting new, like-minded individuals. Through the means of this club, I would like to provide entrepreneurs of any field or background with a platform to establish new connections, and coincide with the next generation of leading entrepreneurs and their ideas."

Membership costs £25 a month and includes access to an event each month as well as the invitations to exclusive workshops and discounts from TBE partners. The biggest benefit is by far the network and great for, as you should have guessed by now, any 'budding' entrepreneurs.
