Trade Mingle is a global Internet based service that connects Entrepreneurs, Early Stage Companies and Established Corporations with Angel Investors, Venture Capital, Corporate Investors, Potential Partners and target data on Mergers and Acquisitions. Trade mIngle began as a practical idea to help people start a business. There was increasing news about the importance of entrepreneurs to the economy, yet I realised that although a lot of people I had been talking to had some really excellent ideas for starting their own business, they didn't seem to take them forward.

It wasn't just one group of people that had these ideas; they ranged from finance directors and academics, to the electrician that came to rewire my house and a chap who was starting a business in removing house & garden rubble that couldn't get the right people to join him. On the other hand, my brother and some colleagues had successfully started a consultancy company because they had complimentary skills that they could call upon and they were there for each other to encourage, motivate and bounce ideas about. What was needed was not just advice on tax etc, but something that would really move people forward, to grab the chance of starting their own work, business, company - call it what you will. A way to put like minded people in contact at whatever stage they might be.

Hence a sort of "dating agency" for business people. After much research, in 2005 we launched yours Business Partners, primarily for people to find others in order to start-up a business. With a demand however for inexpensive routes to funding, further extensions of using the site for Investors and companies needing investment, soon followed. The last piece of the jigsaw was adding the ability for established companies, perhaps needing fresh talent to join with the founders, to also become members. As of late 2006, we are in the midst of a total rewrite to bring new features and ease of use to members. This brings in most of the suggestions made by members and will introduce better facilities for Investors, those looking for funding and a mentor database.

As time goes on, I hope the site will increasingly make a real difference to people's lives and their dreams for achieving a fulfilling work experience. We are looking forward for your valuable suggessions,advices and feed backs. Well wishes, Trade Mingle
