Currently I'm working as an employee in the Aviation industry.
My ambition is to discover and solve problems and creating my own business based on that.

Therefore I'm reaching out to managers/directors and CEO of Aviation related businesses.
Since I'm living in a quite small country (The Netherlands) a lot of people in the Aviation business know each other.
It kinda scares me that my current employer will find out I'm working on a business myself and therefore contacting the 'opponent'.

I'm quite sure if they find out they won't like and that might lead to me not getting a contract extension. (ending in September this year).

How do I proceed and what is some general advice for this case?
