[edit] Bootstrap Venturing
Non-notable commercial terminology. Der Google test yields 28 hits, the vast majority of which are Wikipedia mirors. Bootstrap Venturing has its own wiki, but for all its discussion of history and a vast global network, there aren't any references to support it. The wiki is written for the most part from the first-person, which makes me wonder if it's a network at all, or just one man who really wants it to be one. From the history section of the bootstrap wiki.Wikipedia is not for things made upI started the group to save myself some time - I was meeting with my fellow-entrepreneurs for coffee and lunch and thought it would be easier if we all just met up together!
