It was originally published as part of The Telegraph’s Tech Start-Up 100 debate series in response to TechCrunch writer Paul Carr’s views on European clones. Having observed first-hand the transformation of the European start-up ecosystem over the past few years, I am frequently surprised by the cynicism still displayed by some journalists and entrepreneurs about the prospects for European start-ups.

Who I Am: I sell software which creates bingo cards to teachers. What Content Network Is: Conversion Optimizer (hereafter CO) is a way of bidding on the AdWords Content Network, which is all those little ads you see plastered on non-Google websites. How Converison Optimizer is different: With CO, you don’t specify how much a keyword is worth to you. My Experience With The Content Network Prior to Conversion Optimizer: Endless frustration pretty much sums it up. Why I Came Back to the Content Network: A professional peer who produces language learning software told me he had had excellent success with the Content Network. So things went well?
