More Interactive and Productive Meetings Possible Thanks to iBAHN and VisionTree

Leaders in Broadband and Communications Technology Provide Real-Time Audience Response Solutions

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah — October 16, 2006 — iBAHN, the leading global provider of broadband services to corporations, hotels and meetings venues, has aligned with VisionTree Software, Inc. (www.visiontree.com) to create a unique turnkey event network platform, allowing for real-time audience response during meetings.

Called VisionTree® Conference Enterprise, the technology uses iBAHN's secure, reliable network and gives meeting and event owners the ability to create more effective interactive and productive experiences for attendees, no matter the meeting size.

"With VisionTree Software's audience response applications and iBAHN’s secure, reliable network, we are addressing the needs of the meetings industry and improving event communication and attendee satisfaction," said Martin Pellinat, CEO of VisionTree Software.

Conference participants can use their own Internet-enabled handheld devices and laptop computers, or they can be provided with wireless personal digital assistants (PDAs) loaded with the Conference Platform. The software allows panelists to present information, gain immediate audience feedback through custom surveys and free-text input, and collaborate in real-time while gathering relevant data. The software can then present the data to the audience in the form of graphs and charts for immediate analysis.

"VisionTree turns the traditional one-way conference session into a truly two-way interactive session that increases audience participation and collaboration, enhancing the value of the conference presenters, audience members and hosts", said Ron Cornell, Director World Congress and VisionTree customer.

The development of this audience response solution fortifies the commitment iBAHN and VisionTree to creating and providing secure, cutting-edge technology solutions and transforming the meetings industry.

"The VisionTree Conference Platform, hosted on iBAHN's broadband network, ensures all participants – speakers, organizers and attendees alike -- will have a greater level of interaction opportunities during meetings," said Paul Sullivan, managing director of iBAHN's Enterprise Conference Solutions. "In addition, participants needn’t worry about privacy, as iBAHN will keep the data safe through our protected, reliable network."
