Press Release Summary:
Dresden - Germany, October 17th, 2007 - FutureSAX invited venture capitalists and
entrepreneurs from all over Germany to Dresden under the motto \"Lift Off with
Venture Capital - Emphasis on Technology and Environment.\"

Press Release Body: In front of 80 guests, among them 30 investors, the jury
selected Transinsight with its software technology for knowledge-based information
searches from seven finalists as the winner of the most promising investment.

"The jury choose the Transinsight team because of their excellent business concept
and investment, as well as their convincing presentation", says futureSAX
representative Kerstin Trautmann. She goes on to say: "the Businessplan-Wettbewerb
Sachsen GmbH congratulates the winner for this outstanding success."

"We are proud our concept is regarded as outstanding by top-class investors", says
Dr. Michael R. Alvers, CEO of Transinsight GmbH. He continues: "We created software
with the potential to revolutionize information searching. Themed "Together we
Search, Think, and Write", we raise searching to a new level. We do not rank search
results, the user does! This fosters democracy and allows companies and others to
save plenty of time, which then becomes available for other relevant tasks."

Mark Miller, CEO of CatCap and a member of the jury, is convinced that close
cooperation between the university and new high-tech companies in Dresden will lead
to success. "Transinsight GmbH, with its brand new search paradigm, is
well-positioned in the rapidly growing information handling and knowledge management
market," says Miller.
