Why London Travel is Good for Entrepreneurs?

To expand the mind, there is nothing more effective than traveling. Discovering new places, knowing other cultures and, why not, tasting different delicacies are some of the attractions of taking a plane and getting lost in a distant country like London. An adventure that should last at least a couple of weeks, and an experience that every entrepreneur should enjoy. This is the philosophy shared by not only the 'start-ups' that travel the world and take advantage, as well, of the advantages that each entrepreneurial city has, but also new businesses that have begun to consider entrepreneurs as another type of tourist and no doubt, London is one of those cities. 

Finding new investors, sharing the experience of entrepreneurship with the founders of other start-ups or attending congresses and international events are some of the reasons that have led to the birth of an embassy and a travel agency made by and for entrepreneurs. For many entrepreneurs, Silicon Valley represents a good place to start your idea. With more than 14,000 start-ups, the southern San Francisco Bay attracts young people from all over the world year after year, willing to sacrifice their time and money in the development of their project. However, for a foreign entrepreneur, settling in the mecca of entrepreneurship is not an easy task, especially if you do not have a very full pocket. Renting a home is somewhat expensive and to have access to a credit you must have used the card a few times. 

It is profitable in all senses to open a new company in any country of the European Union, and among them England is postulated as the most interesting due to the simplicity and speed of the process and its low taxation. London serves as a center for many successful businesses. Moreover, as an entrepreneur, you need to explore different areas and the more, you travel, the more your experience is enhanced, because of which, you become more productive and problem-solving which is mandatory for a successful entrepreneur. Technology and rich culture in London are two important factors which significantly help fresh start-ups. Travelling can help to build an effective culture amongst team members of a start-up that has launched recently. 

One of the most important financial districts, “Canary Wharf” is also located in London and travelling to this place can be fruitful for young entrepreneurs. Canary Wharf is a huge business centre in London, located in the old harbour of the West Indies, on the Isle of Dogs with more than 100,000 workers and host of various summer events such as the broadcasting of sports competitions on giant screens, Jazz music festivals, markets and culinary contests.

Together with New York, London is the main financial centre of the world and one of the metropolitan areas with the highest GDP. The city is considered as the world cultural capital, being the city with the highest number of international visits, and having the largest airport system in the world, according to passenger traffic. Therefore, it is not surprising that it is a multiracial city, which is significant for entrepreneurs. There are many cultures that speak more than three hundred different languages coexist. As a curious fact, the London subway, with 151 years, is the oldest in the world.

Public transport in London has a high price and is the destination where we will find the greatest difference compared to other European capitals.

1. With its 11 lines, the network of the London Underground is one of the most extensive in the world. Practically, wherever you are, there will be a subway stop very close. To refer to the subway, Londoners use the word "Tube" and, to a lesser extent, "Underground". 

2. London's famous double-decker red buses are not the fastest means of transportation in the city. However, they are a suggestive way to explore central London. 

3. Despite being large, attractive and comfortable, London's famous Black Cabs and Airport taxi London "compete" with Amsterdam taxis to be the most expensive in Europe. The capacity of the "black taxis" is 5 people in addition to the driver.
