Anthony Scotney, founded JadeLiquid Software to develop unique components for the Java programming language. He designed and developed WebRenderer, a native rendering component for Java which overcomes a major deficiency in Java.

Anthony worked hard to build credibility with the company's target market - international blue chip companies. Part of this approach involved gaining the support of large reference organisations which would give credibility to the product. This led to the establishment of key partnerships with SUN, IBM and EDS.

Now 23, Anthony is CEO of a company that now has established an internationally recognised technology, has customers in 12 countries and is earning 98% of its revenue offshore.

Sponsors
