Tribeworks, Inc. Acquires Atlas Technology Group

Posted on: Wednesday, 15 February 2006, 09:00 CST

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 15, 2006 (PRIMEZONE) -- Tribeworks, Inc. (OTCBB:TWKS) today announced that it has acquired TakeCareofIT (Holdings), Ltd., D/B/A Atlas Technology Group, a software support company based in Malta.

Atlas Technology Group provides custom application software support for companies worldwide. Atlas currently has a support center in Malta, and is building out its second support center in Wellington, New Zealand, with redundant data centers worldwide. Atlas has pioneered the highly specialized area of custom software application support, including proprietary, proactive software monitoring tools. Within the $220 billion (Forrester Research, Inc.) growing, worldwide software support market, Atlas's clients range from small software application firms, not wishing to develop an internal support organization, to very large firms seeking to outsource their internal software support infrastructure, and gain the proven cost savings and increased service levels now available.

Atlas was founded by Robert Altinger, a 20 year support management veteran, who has worked in executive positions with various leading companies including JP Morgan, Microsoft, and Avenade (a joint venture of Accenture and Microsoft).

Altinger states: "The company is leveraging the recent advances in software, monitoring systems, and communications, to build a new, leading edge, global support infrastructure, providing 24X7 software support to large and medium sized companies worldwide"

Tribeworks, Inc. historically has provided software, consulting, and management tools for creating and delivering multimedia applications. Its products include iShell, iShell Mobile, and Kinoma Media Album. In 2005, the management and Board of Directors elected to expand into the rapidly growing area of outsourced software application support. The company was incorporated in 1998 and is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
