I'm dropping out of the University of Bath to work on tech startups full-time in London. Also in Winchester quite a lot as from there.

I'm over in Bristol. If you feel like having a chat about your startup ideas get in touch with me via newsycATdanshub.com or come to Bristol OpenCoffee sometime

I'm london - hedge fund.

not sure i trust a 2-h old account with 1 karma... but it's nice to offer.

Not sure what you thought I was "offering" - just answering the OP.

But I understand your skepticism about the id. I've just been lurking for a while and had no need to post.

Hey - if you are looking for FX trading API or STP people at any point, please get in touch :) (My contract is likely to be up at end of the year) I'm working on an online music startup in my spare time, based in Islington.

Thanks for the contact - we generally look for permies so probably aren't compatible with what you'd want. But always worth getting in touch just in case.

London. echion - I'm doing some research in the healthcare area for a startup and am interested in speaking to anyone involved in a hedge fund and healthcare that works with firms like Gerson Lehman Group. Do you have any suggestions for appropriate individuals or organisation in London to contact?

Not really, unfortunately. Good luck.
