Anton Mannering
About: HI there folks I'm Anton Mannering and I'm CEO of Benchd.com.
I also run networking events for the startups in Ireland and I recently joined the Digital Media Forum to help them develop a Digital Media Network on the island of Ireland to foster real business opportunities and partnerships between Irish companies and further afield.
Now more about my baby...
Benchd has developed a unique way of using crowdsourcing technology for "drinking from the firehose" of web content. Our tools create an intuitive "volume control for the web" which allows users to get the all content they really want and none they don't.
I'm a former Professional Soccer Player and Sport Scientist and so because of stong contacts in the sector and also because of the insanely passionate fans/users (of which I'm one) we're aiming it at the sports market. Tag on a compelling route to market along with some cool communication and organisation solutions for organisations and fans alike (even loose organisations like fan clubs can use them) and we're gonna make some magic.
