Continuing to build-trust and clarity within the non-buying sector

Edmund and I are looking forward to meeting up with two of the key individuals behind letsallshare.com, Stas Murzynowski and David Marrinan-Hayes, acutely aware that Freelending CIC represents both potential collaboration and competition. Walking the talk of responsible sharing is our current challenge and this is today's email from Edmund:

"The meeting is one in which we'll no doubt get more of a sense of each other's projects and where we are at with them. The common ground between us is clearly that we've each spent a lot of time/money developing something that we think will be really valuable once it is widely known and used within a specific geographic area.

Paul and I acknowledge that there is a potential mix of competition and/or collaboration between Freelending CIC and LetsAllShare Ltd. Consequently, we may well want to keep some things private until we've generated some more trust. We are keen to generate some trust between us, and believe that this could well link in with the trust-building messages we put out to our potential users.

We've identified a whole list of things that we imagine that we could offer to your organisation, and, that you could offer to us, either as competitors or collaborators. You might well come up with something similar!  We will be glad of the opportunity to explain the potential for cross-over in the context of our agreed meeting."
