For a while, I've been troubled by the absence of a forum for small businesses to meet, network and partner in West Belfast. For I'm a firm believer in the old adage that a problem shared is a problem halved - nothing like meeting fellow-entrepreneurs and (to use Brian Moran's term) 'passionate business owners' to discover new ways to tackle that cashflow problem, taxing staffing issue, blocked access to capital or challenging sales target which is giving you a headache.
