Hi,
To cut a long story short: I've built two enormously complicated startups on my own but I'm running out of cash and I need help.<p>I've spent the last couple of years under my stone coding 12-14 hours per day and I have virtually no connections or friends.<p>Is there a way I could find a partner or an investor to keep my projects going? I'm based in the UK and I'd prefer to work with somebody whom I can meet face-to-face.<p>Where would you start? Thanks.
I'm in a somewhat similar position although I'm not in the UK. I've spent a good while "under the stone" working on my product and I do have some great relationships with investors/customers, but I don't have any strong connections with technical folks so it's a bit lonely at times. In all fairness though, I've been so busy lately that networking isn't a top priority.<p>If I were you I would try to find a Meetup and invite myself, get out of your comfort zone. I've had a lot of success doing that and it's one of the better decisions I've made in the past year.
I can connect you to an investor that i know, But he is based in Manchester, Where about in the U.K. are you ?<p>You can ping me an email ( in my profile ) and i can send his contact details if you like.
