A New Gang of 5

For those of you who are unaware of the Gang of 5 it is:

“a unique network of local roundtables for the support of startup entrepreneurs.” – GangOf5.net

In other words, it is a group of 5 to 8 entrepreneurs of various backgrounds that get together on a weekly basis to help each other solve problems. I was unfamiliar with the Gang of 5 until I met Mathew Sweezey a local Atlanta entrepreneur. Once he told me about the group, what they did, and who was in his group I realized that I knew everyone that was in his “chapter.” Since the “chapter” never really spoke about the group they were jokingly called the Illuminati of 5. After word started to spread about Go5 more people gave thought to creating their own groups.

I to have given thought in creating a group and would love to put one together in my area. Below is a map pinpointing my location with a 20 mile radius overlay. I would like to start a weekly Go5 meeting anywhere within this circle. If your radius overlaps with mine then please contact me so that we can get our Go5 group started.

To get more information about Go5 head over to Mathews post which includes the rules.
