Stewart Townsend
The EMEA manager of software giant Sun Microsystems' Startup Essentials
programme is a ubiquitous presence at tech events and an
enthusiastic member of the UK's startup scene. Startup Essentials
offers discounted servers, open source and discounted software, as
well as technical advice and expertise - all of which Townsend is
only too happy to wax lyrical about himself.

Having worked for a couple of startups herself, Karia knows what
it's like to have to bootstrap your way through the hard times -
and these days, as one of the senior members of Microsoft UK's
emerging business team, she's committed to helping businesses make
the best of what they have, offering discounted software, support
and even promotion through the company's BizSpark
programme. Having proven herself as a solid champion of the UK
tech scene, Karia has earned her place as one of its most beloved
members.
