If you were face to face with one of the world’s leading CEOs, what would you ask? If you were in a room with the most creative business minds, the top VCs, the most intrepid journalists, who would you speak to first? With The Glasshouse, the entrepreneur network and support group, these decisions become commonplace with no wrong answer or opportunity.

The Glasshouse is a London-based entrepreneur’s network that hosts regular events to encourage networking, the sharing of ideas and debate and inspiration. Their London success has contributed to branches in San Francisco, Prague, Sydney and New York and guest speakers have come from eBay, Google, Yahoo and Nickelodeon UK just to name a few. These major players appear alongside and as part of the conversation with early and mid stage startups that popular the local technology scene.

Although entry to Glasshouse events isn’t cheap – and membership not easy to come by – they do make an effort to keep costs low for entrepreneurs and small businesses, leaving event sponsors and big wigs from banks and venture firms paying full ticket prices to pick up the slack. Additionally, the quality of the speakers alone often more than makes up for the cost of tickets. The Glasshouse is also discerning with who is allowed in, ensuring their events don’t fill simply with who could book tickets fast enough. As potential attendees request tickets, the team meets every few days to select a good cross section of visitors.

If Glasshouse isn’t in your area yet, you can still benefit from the group by watching live streams from their events. Of course if you have the opportunity to attend, the top notch speakers and others in attendance will make it well worth your precious time.

They may be a Glasshouse but there’s no ceiling in sight.
