Leaders of the PMF community initiated a panel discussion with representatives of companies from the web business sector to debate the potential and profitability of high technologies for business and country interests. Three meetings were organized within 3 years.
Proximity to Tech City
To facilitate the growth of the technology cluster in London, Prime Minister David Cameron appointed entrepreneur Eric van der Kleij to lead the initiative. This led to the emergence of Tech City in East London — a technology cluster where, since its launch, the initial 85 start-up companies have found their niche. A few years later, there were as many as 5,000 similar start-ups.
PMF members used this proximity to network and develop community ideas.
Campus London by Google
In 2012, Google bought a building on Bonhill street in the same area. Campus London hosted speakers, hackathons, training seminars and demonstrations in which PMF members were fortunate to participate.
Digital Shoreditch Festival
The PMF community representatives participated in the Digital Shoreditch festival. It revealed to them the complexity of the development and use of digital technology. It also turned the main thoughts and actions of the PMF towards automation and digitalization of companies and managers' operations.
