This article is a little inaccurate. For the record:

- Enterprise Ireland never actually turned us down (though I guess investors rarely explicitly do).

- Auctomatic was a WFP '07 company, and myself and John didn't merge 'till April. A lot of the money was raised before we joined.

The overall point -- that EI are doing a terrible job of investing in Irish start-ups -- is on the mark, though.
