Director at CGB Digital
London, United Kingdom
In 2005 I started a small company with 3 old colleagues/co-students from university called Education Made Easy. We did this because we felt there was a need for high quality web-lectures and mainly because we all wanted to feel what a startup was like. In 2007 we decided for multiple reasons to change our plans and venture a new startup called TipIt.to.
In 2007 I left this company/idea before it was founded to go and finish my Master of Science degree in London, UK. Here I am now, attending meet-ups with other entrepreneurs and geeks, searching for new startup ideas to venture upon, and here and there to study.
