Tired of hearing that we can`t

The edge of the edge

Welcome, @IulianSirbu, and what a great story! The edge of the edge. One of the original Edgeryders team was Moldovan too, @TOOLosophy: but he has not posted in a while. My name is Alberto; I am not Romanian – in fact I have never even been to Romania, I am ashamed to admit. But I plan to fix that, fast. STF Bucharest, though very very new, is already showing me the country and its capital in a new light: so much energy and initiative! You guys are the future of Europe, that much is clear.

It seems to me you are advocating social entrepreneurship. This is a good thing to advocate, and an even better one to put into practice, as it seems you are doing. Question: are your initiatives already live? How are they doing, businesswise? I ask this because two years ago a small group of us tentatively created a social enterprise on top of the Edgeryders community, called Edgeryders LBG. This company funds the Edgeryders platform, provides community management services and (resources allowing) also funds a yearly community gathering called Living On The Edge. We are open to proposals for collaboration, and in fact community member are authorized (and encouraged) to develop projects using the Edgeryders corporate shell. It comes down to this: if you don’t have a company but there is a project you want to do that requires an address, a VAT number, a bank account etc. talk to us, chances are you can do it using Edgeryders LBG (more details here).

Sad to miss the chamber music, but I am way too far…
