You don't need a "network" to start a business.
In fact, many founders start businesses in industries and niches that, at first, they might have little, to no, connection to.
If you think a network is critical, probably the most effective (time-wise, maybe not so much cost-wise) way to acquire one is to go get an MBA or gain employment in a professional services firm (consulting, banking, accounting, law, etc.) that works in that industry.

Hell, my neighbor has 15 or so homes and lives in Europe most the year and has since the early 1990s. Lots of different types of entrepreneurs and avenues to success. Capital is the key in my experience.
