Another busy week

This week has been a busy week for Postgraduate Toolbox and another exciting one. Following a two-day visit from a mentor and his business partner, I now have a clear focus and strategy for my idea. Their company has more than twelve years business experience managing in e-communities for major global organisations, significant contacts in industry and access to on-demand technical support and I am very happy and excited to incorporate them into my team.

We have put a good strategy in place for the next month that moves the idea out of the development phase and on the way to launching. I am going to set up an advisory board to guide the rest of the service’s development over the next three months with a view to launching at the beginning of the next academic year.

The next four to six weeks are going to be crucial. I am currently focusing on making sure all public material are championing these new ideas and that my postgraduate research network, Graduate Junction, continues to grow steadily and add value to the postgraduate community so that I can start to deliver my new service to as many people as possible when it is ready to launch.
