When new residents come to Opora, I always ask: "Why do you need a business club?" And in the vast majority of cases, people answer either "for new acquaintances and networking" or "there's no one to discuss business with, I need feedback on it from outside."

Both of these requests are related to a lack of quality environment. And I understand why this happens. After all, when you can build a business fully remotely and choose GPT as a business partner, there is a shortage of simple human communication.

But the problem is that often there is no one to discuss business with: parents don't understand, friends work for hire. So you remain one-on-one with your thoughts and problems.

But where then to look for a strong environment?
For an entrepreneur, it is easiest to do this, of course, in a business club. However, it is very important to get into the "right club." For example, at Opora we focus on a certain segment of entrepreneurs: founders of digital businesses with revenue up to 60 million rubles per year. This means that for a factory owner with revenue of 500 million/year, the value from our club will be minimal, and he should find another community. But an IT founder developing his startup will find our club ideal.

In addition to clubs, you can attend open events, forums, and conferences. But there the probability of meeting the right person is greatly reduced, since the audience is usually very diverse.

Therefore, if you are building a business online - check out our bot, perhaps it is here that you can find that very support 🙌
