From Idea to Business - The Virtual Workspace for ideas
by Startacus Admin
Since we launched our Virtual Workspace just a few weeks ago, we've had all sorts of ideas getting thrashed out there by Startacus members using both public and private boards.
We know though that lots more of you would use it, if you had a little more idea about what it's all about. So, we thought we would reveal a few sneaky pics of what it looks like, what you can do there and how you can use it to get working on that big idea of yours. We reckon it rocks! Hope you do too!
Here's what it's all about...
