This week 22 startups came to London to Seedcamp to get advice of European celebrity web mentors. Seedcamp can be compared to Startup School by Y Combinator. The startups get a crash course in marketing, funding and tech.

Seven companies are selected as winners and receive a €50k investment for a minority stake.

Congrats to:
uberVU: Tracking comments on your social media content (a The Next Web 2008 startup as well)
Kyko: Casual gaming inside MSN / Live Messenger
Basekit - Make building complex webapplications easy.
Soup.io - Personal publishing on the web made easy
Toksta - Provide instant messaging systems for social networks
Mobclix - iPhone analytics
StupeFlix - Smart video slideshows from photographs

Thanks to Anders Fredriksson for updating via twitter.

Hmmm… Robert Gaal of Wakoopa has been mentoring four of the seven winners. Wondering what influence he had on the jury decision… Robert?
