Where could I find a company willing to give a contract scholarship for The University of Edinburgh?

I am from Romania, and my parents are not able to pay for an education like that offered by The University of Edinburgh.
I have been admitted to the university’s prestigious School of Informatics, yet my joy is limited by the fact that I do not have the money to go there.
I have given up trying to find scholarships.
I want to have a software company pay for my education. In return, I would sign a future work contract with them for a minimum period (or something like this). I believe both sides could gain from this.
However, in order to do this, I have to “know people” . . big people if you know what I mean. Well . . . I don’t, so please help as best you can.
What I am talking about here is about 6000 pound for 4 years + an extra 6225 ponds for the first year (because my country will not be part of the EU until 2007, thus bigger taxes will apply in the first semester).

    There are tons of scholarships that go unclaimed each year. Many $400, $500 or $1000 scholarships never even get applied for because people think it’s chump change and not worth applying for. Well, get a few of those $500 scholarships and it’ll really make a dent in your tuition bill.

    Do a search on scholarships, search your major, your ethnic heritage, your town, your parents employers, your employer, hobbies, high school, local chamber of commerce/rotary/ lion’s club etc. Left-handed? There is a scholarship out there for you! Older woman returning to school? There are scholarships out there for you. Do combined searches on more than one criteria “hispanic women aviation scholarships” etc.

    Go to the library and ask the reference librarian for a reference book on scholarships. They usually have more than one. There are all kinds of scholarships out there, you just have to start applying yourself and make it your summer career to send out letters everyday for scholarships. Good luck!

    I do taxes for a living.
