Global Capacity Named Tech Awards Circle Winner

Company Honored Among Top Enterprise Services Providers for 2009

CHICAGO, Nov. 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Global Capacity, Inc. (parent:
Capital Growth Systems, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: CGSY)), the world's leading
telecommunications information and logistics company, today announced that it
has been selected as a winner in the Tech Awards Circle. The award celebrates
the products, services, vendors and individuals making a difference in the
technology industry today. Winners were selected by an independent circle of
publication reviewers and journalists from nominations based on a broad range
of achievements, from product and technology innovations to talented executive
leadership and engineering innovators. Gold, silver and bronze awards were
given out in each category.

In its first year of Tech Awards competition, Global Capacity received a
Bronze award in the Best Enterprise Service category. The award was given for
the company's One Marketplace, a revolutionary managed network outsourcing
service. The Tech Awards reviewers evaluated Global Capacity's service, which
uses the company's proprietary telecom price information and network
optimization tools to design the most cost-effective network architecture. One
Marketplace was launched as a branded network in early 2009 by aggregating
customer demand and leveraging the company's logistics and network management
expertise. The "outsourcing" approach replaces traditional network purchasing
routines with a custom-tailored telecom portfolio management model that is
able to deliver high-value services at significantly lower costs. These
solutions enable customers to focus energy on their core business objectives
and reduce the burdens associated with network acquisition and operation. One
Marketplace impressed the Tech Awards Circle judges as a simplified method of
designing and expanding an enterprise network that is flexible, scalable, and
affordable but is delivered from a single source.

"Despite overwhelmingly strong competition, Global Capacity exhibited true
industry excellence to be recognized among the top of the Tech Awards Circle,"
said Kevin Anderson, awards program coordinator. "Our judges were pleased at
the level of submissions from all the vendors entering this year's
competition, so to be named a winner of this prestigious award is a testament
to the quality and innovation unrivaled in the high tech community. We wish
them continued success and look forward to them defending their title during
the next awards period."

"With One Marketplace, Global Capacity combines its core assets, information,
systems, and expertise to deliver innovative solutions to our customers as
they seek to lower their technology costs while maintaining control of their
network resources," said Patrick Shutt, Chief Executive Officer of Global
Capacity. "Receiving the Tech Awards Circle recognition is validation for this
program, and we look forward to building on the momentum we have established
for One Marketplace in 2010 and beyond."
