My husband was raised in London and found success at a very young age as a restaurant, bar and lounge consultant. He has set up many successful and well known business during his time in London. About 5 years ago he took a position as head of restaurant/bars of a large and successful hotel group in nyc and made his move to Manahattan 4 days prior to 9/11. One week later, his job was no longer available to him.

He has spent the past 5 years in NY working on small scale turnaround operations, but now is ready to get back to his own projects. He is currently searching for $950k from investors for his own project and is finding that his network of potential investors in London are no longer accessible. His NY contacts does not have a high list of investors.

What are his best options forreaching potential investors that may be interested and potentially ready to invest in a project such as this?

I appreciate any advice available. Thank you.
