Web2Asia and amiando Announce Distribution Partnership for East Asia

SHANGHAI, China--(Business Wire)--
As already revealed by Venturebeat last week, Web2Asia
(http://www.web2asia.com), its parent company MH / direkt and amiando,
a leading platform provider for online event management, have today
officially announced a distribution partnership for the East Asian
market. In June 2007, amiando launched the first European online tool
for a secure, uncomplicated and individual do-it-yourself ticket shop.
After gradually expanding to other European countries, amiando
currently offers its platform in German, English, French and Spanish.

The East Asian region, particularly China, has shown impressive
growth potential for foreign interactive media companies. In the first
quarter of 2008 China had reached an online population of 230 million
- more than any other country in the world - and continues to grow at
an astonishing rate of 53.3% yearly. Also the exhibition and event
industry is developing rapidly with a 20% growth rate per annum.

"We have a strong international focus and are happy to work
together with a strong partner to further adapt our product to local
needs," says Markus Eichinger, director of international expansion at
amiando AG. In cooperation with Web2Asia and MH / direkt amiando's
system has already proved to be particularly suitable for events in
Asia, such as seminars by the FORUM Institute, Germany's largest
business conference and seminar specialist, or the CHINICT conference
held in Beijing this spring.
