Both Google and Weborama delivered key notes at the recent ATS Paris. Jerome Grateau, Head of Media Platforms, SEEMEA at Google, focused on the evolution of the French sell-side eco-system - while Weborama's Alain Levy concentrated on the buy-side and particularly how the Webormama business is keeping pace with the seismic shifts in the industry.

Providing specialist support and consultancy services for new businesses, Startup Avenue was involved in developing Weborama from the very outset. With
links between Weborama and Startup Avenue reinforced in 2005, it was only natural that Alain Levy should join Weborama's executive team as Chairman. Alain Levy is a graduate of ENPC business school and the Boston MIT.
