Kiwis doing well

The HOS reports on 31 year old Claudia Batten who has just sold her software company to Microsoft for up to US$400 million!

I’ve met Claudia a few times over the years, mainly through her aunt Annabel Young. The article says she may stand for Parliament one day. Heh, she’d even make John Key look poor 🙂

And just to prove how small New Zealand is, I was also at university and Carrington Hall in Dunedin with her husband – Andrew McIlroy. He was at Russell McVeagh along with Claudia.

Anyway congratulations Claudia and Andrew. A great success story.
