Meyer co-founded First Tuesday, the informal monthly cocktail party to bring potential investors and entrepreneurs together, in 1998 and has started consulting on the side. The current market shakeout may mean that lots of European start-ups disappear for lack of funding. Meyer is convinced that consolidation needs to take place, and she wants to drive the process and help venture capitalists manage the exits.
The vision thing: "The goal is to create Silicon Valley-style connectivity and funding across Europe.com."
Forward spin: Meyer expects to announce several new pan-European projects later this month.
