GoConnect (ASX:GCN) Update on Development of Internet Connected TV Audience

newsroom@abnnewswire.net — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 17:13:57 GMT

Directors of GoConnect Ltd (ASX:GCN) are pleased to advise that the company's IPTV business channel, World Business Network, has just received approval from LG Inc. (SEO:066570) and has gone live on all LG Internet connected TVs sold globally. The World Business Network is available as a downloadable application on all Internet connected TVs of LG. It currently carries two programs, The Business Show, which distributes a series of sponsored business interviews conducted by Adam Shand, and the ABN Newswire business news programs. Additional business programs will be added in coming months. Including The World Business Network, this brings to six the number of downloadable applications that GCN has developed, and which have been approved by LG for distribution to the LG IPTV households globally.

Since inception, GCN's IPTV audience, gained through Internet connected TVs of Sony (NYSE:SNE) and LG, have to-date attracted an audience of over 52,000 households, with over 70 per cent of that from the international markets outside of Australia. Based on industry statistics of 2.5 people per TV household, this translates to an IPTV audience reach of 130,000 people, a useful addition to the GCN advertising network that the company is building. However, the potential growth of this audience is still relatively untapped.

Based on TV industry sources, by the end of 2012, we expect the number of Internet connected TVs that will carry GCN's IPTV applications and premium channel uctv.fm will have grown to about 50 million units, potentially delivering an audience reach of 125 million people worldwide. This audience reach does not include that from smartphone and desktop PC users with smartphone expected to be increasing in its acceptance for video viewing by the IPTV audience on the move. With GCN's IPTV applications and channels available on the three screens of desktop PCs, smartphones, and Internet connected TVs worldwide, GCN is well positioned to benefit from the exponential growth and increasing popularity of IPTV connected devices and networks.

GCN has first mover advantages in the IPTV industry, having first launched its patented IPTV application GoTrek in the year 2000 and GoTrek's derivative m-Vision for the first generation smartphone in 2003. Capitalising on the company's proprietary technologies, expertise and experience in IPTV to expand the company's audience reach, GCN has now also added to its IPTV strategy free Wi-Fi network (wireless internet) and a strong China focus.

GoConnect (ASX:GCN), Priority One Establish Second Beachhead Into Greater China

newsroom@abnnewswire.net — Tue, 25 Oct 2011 10:00:43 GMT

Directors of GoConnect Ltd (ASX:GCN) and Priority One Network Group Ltd ("Priority One") are pleased to advise that they have established a second beachhead into the Greater China region. The two companies have entered into a Shareholders Agreement with Novel Orient Ltd ("Novel Orient"), a company based in Hong Kong.

Under the Agreement, GoConnect Australia Pty Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of GCN, and Priority One, will each invest in a 40% interest in Priority One GoConnect China Group Ltd ("Priority One GoConnect China"), with Novel Orient holding the balance of 20%. This Agreement establishes the corporate structure for a strategic partnership between GCN, Priority One and Novel Orient to market and implement the GCN IPTV technology as well as Priority One's loyalty reward program and payment system into the Greater China region.

Novel Orient has established close relationships with a number of major retailers in the Greater China region including e-commerce portal Caigouzhan (www.caigouzhan.com), Chow Tai Fook Jewellery and SaSa International.

Caigouzhan is an online retail platform that specializes in the sale of luxury goods and cosmetics to the Chinese market and is the only authorized independent online retailer for Chow Tai Fook Jewellery and SaSa International for the China market. Caigouzhan is expected to be the first of these relationships to adopt the GCN IPTV technologies and Priority One's loyalty reward program.

Chow Tai Fook Jewellery is the largest jewellery retailer in Greater China. The brand is popular in the Chinese speaking world. The company has retail outlets in several countries. Currently, Chow Tai Fook has more than 1,000 chain stores, including over 150 retail outlets in Mainland China. Chow Tai Fook Jewellery is currently seeking listing on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange for the raising of up to US$4 billion. SaSa International is the leading cosmetic retailing and beauty services group in Asia, and is listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong with a market capitalization of over US$1.5 billion.

Under the Agreement, GCN will be responsible for providing its IPTV technologies under a free licence to Priority One GoConnect China, such technologies will be applied towards assisting in the promotion and marketing of the Priority One loyalty reward program and payment system including the introduction of an IPTV shopping channel in the People's Republic of China. Priority One will be responsible for licensing the Priority One loyalty reward program and payment system to Priority One GoConnect China and providing the relevant system support to Priority One GoConnect China.

China's Internet user population is the largest and fastest growing in the world. According to report from China Internet Network Information Centre, China's online population soared to 485 million as of the end of June this year as use of mobile phones to surf the Web spreads. The number of people who use mobile phones to access the Internet rose to 318 million, or about 65 % of the total mobile phone users. That was up 14.8 % from a year earlier. In September this year, China reported that her Internet population exceeded 500 million users.

China's growth rate in Internet commerce, however, is starting to outstrip that of the growth rate of her Internet population. Industry statistics show that in the year to June 2011, transaction volume of online payments in China reached RMB 830 billion (US$129 billion), an increase of 112% over 2010.

Conservative industry estimate indicates that transaction volume is expected to reach RMB 2,250 billion (US$ 352 billion) by 2012. China should no longer be regarded as the last frontier for Western businesses, but instead should be regarded as the frontline for any businesses, particularly those with a strong focus on Internet and mobile commerce.

Priority One GoConnect China, together with Shanghai Reliance Technology (which GCN and Priority One have each taken a 40% interest, refer to ASX release 22 September 2011), will aim to replicate the success of Priority One in the Western world. The corporate structure is now in place for the GCN-Priority One partnership to secure substantial Chinese merchant interest, both online and offline, in adopting the Priority One payment system and loyalty reward program.

Shanghai Reliance Technology and Priority One GoConnect China will be executing the GCN-Priority One strategy for China. Both of these China companies will have access to GCN's commercialized IPTV and Priority One's loyalty reward technologies. Backed by strong local knowledge and established business relationships in China, these companies will be able to rapidly implement their business strategy, to introduce and promote the Priority One loyalty reward program and payment system to China, and more importantly, to empower GCN and Priority One to capitalize on the phenomenal growth in China's Internet and mobile commerce.

Voice1Direct (ETR:V0D) Responds to Local Shire Council Bushfire Detection Wireless Network Request

newsroom@abnnewswire.net — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 17:30:03 GMT

Voice1Direct (ETR:V0D) is pleased to announce that its Australian subsidiary, Voice1Direct Pty Ltd has responded to a Request for Expression of Interest from Towong Shire Council, located in the State of Victoria, Australia, for the deployment of a communications network and monitoring service for bushfire detection and response services.

As part of the Towong Council's commitment to sustained economic development and growth in the area and fully understanding the benefits that the widespread uptake of broadband can deliver for its residents and business owners alike, Voice1Direct has proposed a complete turnkey wireless broadband network that allows for the delivery of a robust, fast, efficient and upgradable communications network, that will not only support enhanced bushfire detection systems to keep the Shire safe, but also bring much improved, high speed broadband and associated communications services across the region.

"While Towong Council's network requirements are right in our sweet spot and is the ideal rural, last mile project we know and do well, says Philip Walls, CEO for Voice1Direct, "we fully understand the vital need for Early Fire Detection and Rapid Response systems to minimize the risk of major bushfire outbreaks, so Victoria never gets a repeat of the large scale property destruction and loss of life as seen in 2009 bushfires that devastated the State".

Voice1Direct has proposed a complete E2E 'WiMix" network that utilizes it's patented 'SMART Adaptive Antenna' technologies, that delivers the faster speeds and wider coverage required and which aligns well with all the stated objectives for this two (2) staged project.

For the North East Victoria Bushfire Spotting and Response Service, Voice1Direct will supply a resilient network infrastructure to support all the necessary fire detection camera equipment and HD Video and conferencing services to be delivered to all State, Local Government and firefighting authorities.

For backhaul transmission, early link analysis has Voice1Direct calculating throughput capabilities of its proposed radio equipment, over a distance of approximately 30km and using unlicensed spectrum in the 5GHz range of an initial 180Mbps. Using 11.8 GHz spectrum it delivers potential 498Mbps throughputs, providing substantial bandwidth capability for delivery of HD video.

Voice1Direct also has the capability to deploy a full suite of industry based services whether through retail (direct) channels or with local business partners, to provide innovative bundled solutions which are fully integrated with Voice1Direct's wireless network. Examples of such solutions include Mining, Municipal 'WiMesh' Networks, Security, Education, M2M/RFID/GPS Tracking, and Industrial Automation.

"As we move through the current short list and selection process and should we be the successful respondent and awarded the tender, we are keen to work closely with the local council and residents over the long term to ensure we can deliver the communications services specific to their needs as demand and technology changes" Walls adds.

Voice1Direct has therefore proposed an 'upgradable communications network' infrastructure that will provide substantial savings and bring high speed wireless and broadband coverage across the Towong Shire which can be easily extended into other shires around the region.

Voice1Direct (ETR:V0D) to Supply Wireless Infrastructure and Mobile Data for Sky-i Real-Time GPS Track and Trace Services

newsroom@abnnewswire.net — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 17:12:22 GMT

Voice1Direct Ltd's (ETR:V0D) Australian subsidiary, Voice1Direct Pty Ltd has today signed a contract to supply wireless infrastructure and mobile services to Sky-i International, a leading developer of real-time tracking and GPS monitoring solutions targeting the thoroughbred horse racing, cycling and asset tracking industries worldwide.

RFID/GPS Solutions are being adopted for many "Track and Trace" requirements, whether for performance monitoring, security or asset tracking and management and are amongst the fastest growing technology segments in the world.

Voice1Direct will partner with Sky-i to deploy its mobile and fixed wireless infrastructure and deliver Machine-to-Machine (M2M) mobile data services enabling the live transmission of real-time tracking and GPS data back to end users - wherever they are for instant processing, viewing and storage. Voice1direct will also provide the required mobile data services under its third party agreements with GSM and 3G mobile operators.

Sky-i has developed a "Real Time" Track & Trace solution for the Sporting Industry that can accurately measure competitor speed, position and performance Data throughout a Sporting Event and has forecasted worldwide sales of up to 1 million GPS unit sales over the next five years with revenues potentially reaching $30m p.a. In the Australian horse racing market alone, where $1b is invested annually, Sky-i will sell $10-$20 monthly subscription via a distribution channel consisting of Gaming Portals, Sporting Clubs and Associations worldwide, a full range of Data services depending on the feature sets required, and will be initially targeting the Australian Thoroughbred Racing industry's 3,668 Horse Trainers, 78,000 Owners and the 200,000 race meetings held per year, then expanding to deliver public viewing subscription services either trackside, online, Mobile devices, via TV and/or betting agencies.

"This is an ideal use case for Voice1Direct's mobile tower infrastructure that can be deployed in areas where remote or saturated GPS and tracking coverage is required - such as horse racing or major sporting events like cycling", stated Voice1Direct's CEO Philip Walls. "M2M and GPS location based services is a niche business opportunity for us and we are excited to be bundling our network access and data capabilities with Sky-I's unique track and trace solutions for key Australian events to be announced soon which Sky-i has been developing", Walls continues.

The Sky-i GPS device offers race trainers, owners and the racing enthusiast real-time analysis data tracking and monitoring of horses such as their distance from waypoints e.g. running rail, other horses, lateral movement, or comparisons against competitors positions, accurate speeds of travel, and even speed/momentum fluctuation just to name of few of the devices capabilities. This requires no installed infrastructure except 3G mobile connectivity and where Voice1Direct will also deploy its portable transmission towers where required.

For sports in general, the Sky-i technology is a perfect fit where there is a need for the collection of real time performance data via the rapid delivery and live access of such valuable information which can only be achieved with the combination of RFID / Tracking and Measuring via this unique GPS Transmission Platform.

About Sky-i

Sky-i's vision is to be a leading global provider of real time performance data initially to the thoroughbred racing industry and the professional cycling circuit and eventually with extensions into many other sports that will benefit from the use of their unique technology. Sky-i is currently establishing operations in Australia primarily targeting the thoroughbred horse racing and sporting markets and will develop its GPS solutions and services for expansion into international markets through licensing arrangements. Sky-i has so far developed, tested and tailored a unique solution for the horse racing industry by working closely with trainers and jockeys - gaining valuable insights for delivering specific public service requirements for racing institutions, gaming operators, owners, race followers and betting agencies.
