Web 2.0 companies are not a separate category, but would mainly be listed under category ICT - Software. Bear with me - the engine is awful - but we are working on a tenfold improvement over this listing. http://www.technopolisventures.fi/index.php?568 N.B. Pre-incubation cases and graduated clients are not listed here, so there's several interesting Web2.0 companies that will later appear on the public radar or have already gone though our development programs.

Great work! I guess you might find some additional companies from this list of Finnish gaming companies: http://asmunder.net/peliyhtiot/ -- I hope it helps to develop your list further.

We don't necessarily want to limit it to Northern-Europe, but will focus our resources to those startups because we follow Northern-European startups at ArcticStartup itself. Thus, by focusing on Northern Europe in everything we do we aim to provide more value for our readers. At the end of the day the choice goes back to why we started blogging in the first place: "We at ArcticStartup aim to encourage entrepreneurship and to help create a radically optimistic entrepreneurial culture here in the Nordics and Baltics by writing about the startups, the stories behind them and the events that influence them."

We've been trying to get an understanding of all the startups across the Baltic and Nordic countries ourselves and felt that a common directory could help out everybody. Will let you guys know as soon as we get it out. Ville. You’ll be happy to know that ArcticStartup is already hard at work on a Nordic and Baltic wide ‘CrunchBase’ and it should come out very soon.
