Whatcom Investing Network Planning

[Caitlin Quigley]

I thought I would start a new thread about our local investing project, Whatcom Investing Network, as we move into the planning phase.

 

Tasks we need help with:

• legal research - any legal advice on forming this type of investing network is useful
• website development - reviewing and fleshing out whatcominvesting.org
• collecting emails - I am maintaining a list of people who are interested in being investors or in staying updated
• Whatcom Investing Network documents - developing the member application

Our next regular workgroup meeting will be Sunday, June 5 from 3-5pm at the Coop Connections building.

 

We are planning to have our first Whatcom Investing Network meeting of investors only on Tuesday, June 28th at 7pm in the Coop Connections building.  At this meeting we will give an overview of:

• how the LION model works
• basic ideas about how to perform due diligence on an investment opportunity (we will NOT be giving advice of any kind)
• the terms of membership

Please get in touch with us if you want to get involved.

 

Cheers,

Caitlin
