Zopa = Top UK Web 2.0 App

Posted by Dave at 4:35 pm

While the arguements rage about what exactly is meant by Web 2.0, Richard MacManus over at Read / Write Web has kindly listed Zopa as Top UK Web 2.0 App - we are there, but you have to go right to the end to see us (Downside of having a name beginning with 'Z' I guess.) The original source for the article comes from JigsawUK - a web site that tracks UK startups, so thanks to Colin Donald there as well. It's interesting that we're in the category of 'Second time around entrepreneurs' - I guess that's because of Richard's previous experience at Egg, but James and myself were definitely start up virgins when we left Egg to create Zopa :)

Hi guys,

The “second time around entrepreneurs” tag highlights which companies have anyone in the team with a start-up background and hence a better chance of success.

Silicon Valley’s full of companies with experienced founders, but it’s still relatively rare enough in the UK to be worth noting.

Best of luck with Zopa!

Colin
