I will be attending a meet where i'll be able to network with some very influential businessmen, some real big shots. How do I capitalise on this opportunity, gaining value from them, whilst also not only behaving like i'm only taking value as I imagine they would be used to value drains/arsekissers/golddiggers.

notes

  • Entered a business planning competition, have idea, mentors assist development, research & analyze variables (marketing/financials etc),
  • Biz Plan will be send for grading and then shortlisted for judging panel of the influential people in question
  • I did not meet the grading, was upset, not anymore, more time to plan/restrategize etc, however I have still been invited to event to support those who did, but also to make connections.( I admit I my weakest piece/possible letdown in my plan was most likely my financial estimates) .My plan in my most unbiased opinion is potent in its potential to be successful and feedback received has consisted of praise/intrigue/, I even landed work as an intern with a startup company through this same appeal.
