Ask HN: I am next week in London. Who should I meet?

15 pointsandreasklinger10 comments

Hi all

I am doing http://www.garmz.com a web/fashion startup, basically trying to change the fashion industry as a whole – starting with a tiny but hard aquired budget.

I am next week in London (due to seedcamp) and would appreciate any good tips for interesting meetings in the time around wednesday to saturday.

The startup goal of the startup is to enable fashion talent – people with new ideas in fashion – think of e.g. fashion students.

We provide online portofolios of fashion sketches and – in case of customer intereste - production and hopefully "offline" success.

I would love to meet people with good ideas for our startup, about fashion in general. I am very open to hints to good startup events within this short time period.

regards, Andreas

ps: I am usually just lurking HN so let me know if i am violating some netiquette of HN by posting this kind of request.

You should try to set up a meeting with angels Eileen Tso, Robert Dighero, or Stefan Glänzer at White Bear Yard. White Bear Yard is one of the main startup hubs in London. The caliber of the people that work there and those that pass through on a daily basis is very high.

thanks for the idea - we will be there and set up our homebase at Mr. Glänzer's HQ

Say hello. I'm at Picklive and sit about 10 feet away from them.

Steve.

hi sorry missed that we are back in ldn on sept 13th-21st. e could meet for a quick chat if you like

MyDeco are doing something with enabling (furniture) designers to turn their ideas into products. Perhaps worth a look?

thanks for all the input we were able to sheudle some meeting with index, accel partners, ariadne, balderton, stefan glänzer and many other

btw we also published today the next release - if anybody is interested you can also see the first fashion designs at www.garmz.com

Central St Martins and/or London College of Fashion?
