I don’t think I really had any training. I stumbled into it and did what seemed to work. When I moved to Colorado and decided to actually create a company, not just a business, I was lucky to find CEO Space. That was the first place for me to understand the difference between having a job and creating a company. That resource has given me a lot of information and support. The Business Catapult (www.businesscatapult.com) also had a great focus and help for me on entrepreneurship. There are so many other things that happen when you have to have investment in order to create what it is that you want to do. If you’re selling a product, you might need money to buy the product, or build a technology infrastructure, or create a plant to build, whatever it is that you want to make. You’re going to need a lot of capital for that, and that in turn opens up a whole other world of possibilities—and learning. You’re talking to investors at other levels and you need to know how to legally ask for money. It is entirely a new learning curve.
