Concept:

An innovative approach to supporting small business or charities.

Prime Thinkers is a group of experienced business professionals [whether working, semi retired or retired] who are happy to share their expertise with entrepreneurs, small businesses or those in the not for profit sector in return for a small contribution to their nominated charity, Kith and Kids.

Every business is faced, from time to time, with an issue, problem or block to progress. Small businesses and charitable organisations often have difficulty in accessing help – particularly due to lack of funds.

Prime Thinkers was set up as a ground-breaking response to this situation.

The group members freely donate their time to brainstorming ideas in order to address issues brought to them.

After a 10 minute presentation they will ask questions or clarification then follow with an ideas generation session. Presenters make a note of any ideas they may wish to consider or follow up.

In all, the Presenter will receive over an hour of the time and brainpower of up to 8 of their members and will then, in return, make a contribution of £100 to the charity.

If you would like to join a meeting of the recently formed East London Group either to present a concern, develop or test a new idea/concept or confirm your business strategy please contact, in the first instance:
