I'm now lodging with the nice people at Agenda 21 - the award winning digital media business. Having worked with Pete Robins back in the day at Modem I figured he will be less shocked by my bad habits than some of the other friends who also generously offered space - Que Pasa, Amberlight, C4, Dare, Spike, Grand Union, Unruly Media, Great Guns, Contentment....
As well as all this generosity I'm seeing a real appetite for new thinking amongst people and a genuinely entrepreneurial spirit - most people seem to be with Rahm Emanuel when he said its a shame to waste a good crisis.
The upside of the credit crunch is that talented people are available, its never been cheaper to develop new ideas and smart businesses are looking for ways to improve the consumer experience as a way of increasing loyalty and reducing the churn that plague so many industries.
Its a good time to be launching a new venture
Hear, hear! ;-)
