Christopher Clay’s Summary

Founder of Soup.io, an easy multimedia blogging & lifestreaming service.

We started at the Viennese "hacker space" Metalab, moving to London when we won the startup competition Seedcamp. After spending a few weeks in the Valley we're now back in Vienna, focusing on usage growth and business development.

I have a background in information design, skills in both frontend and backend development, a history of starting web projects since I was 14 and a passion for innovative web UI.
