Business Forum?
Does anyone know of an online forum for expats/English speakers running businesses in Spain. Or, is there one here I can't see?
It needs to be specifically Spain based businesses for the purpose of sharing operating, and legal experiences etc.
I'm looking to establish an arts/tourism based business preferably in Andalucia (arts/business/crisis/Andalucia
). Yeah - I'm laughing also, but I have nothing to lose. It's a very unique idea which I believe will succeed if not make anyone rich and I need to bounce a few ideas around amongst those with business experience in Spain. It's so novel I suspect people wouldn't get the proposal in England never mind very conservative Andalucia!

Sounds like a good idea for a sub-forum here?

One of my friends owns a hotel. He is a member of the spanish equivalent to UK Chamber of Commerce local business club, they meet once a month. He finds it very useful.
You may find there is a local club near you?

It's run by someone I'm connected to on Twitter (he's a French-Anglo who runs a location business in Madrid), but I re-found his tweet by searching on Twitter using "Madrid entrepreneur" as the search phrase.
There is an online forum, but it's more for "social networking" rather than strictly business

Re: Business Forum?
Thanks for the replies.
I'm not looking to offer holidays, or teach art. I was hoping to find an online forum to bounce ideas around and gain reactions from people who can't see the 'scruffshyster artist' behind the plan
I will have a problem getting people to take me seriously in Granada!
Perhaps sticking to the relatively simple, low income life I have now is actually a better idea? It's not so bad.
