+ UK Students Make $16.5m From Web Site Sale
The International Media Products Group (IMPG) has paid 10
million pounds ($16.5m) to four penniless UK students for a 74% controlling stake in Student-Net, a UK internet company which owns the web site www.student-net.co.uk. Student-Net provides an online information service for students covering topics ranging from accommodation and money, to health concerns and social issues.
Set up by the students only five months ago, the web site had attracted an average 20,000 users a week within a few months of going online. IMPG intends to expand the web site from its base at Nottingham Trent University to cover campuses
across Britain and eventually abroad.
