Special Report Focuses on Companies with Innovative Technology Concepts for Telecom

Linguateq, Inc. announced today that it has been selected as one of "12 Red Hot Startups" in special report recently published by America's Network.

Companies were selected to the list based upon their innovative technology contributions to the telecommunications industry. Linguateq was recognized for its patented Bit Management Technology (BMT) that is used by convergent service providers who need high-speed, high-volume, flexible systems that process complex, disparate datastreams at the bit level in real time and with absolute integrity.

"Linguateq's recognition by America's Network serves to validate our vision that bit-level data management will be key to business success in the 21st Century e-conomy," said Richard (Rick) Bolandz, Linguateq's chief executive officer. "Though BMT can be implemented in many different industries, it is particularly well suited to the telecommunications convergent services market because it enables carriers to bill out every second, provision new services quickly on demand, implement promotions and pricing plans quickly, and sustain and grow market share through enhanced customer service."

Bit Management Technology (BMT) is Linguateq's patented datastream technology, designed to master complex, disparate datastreams. BMT is able to program datastreams to look and behave in very specific ways by directing the bits that comprise them. By reengineering the bit structure, BMT can perform datastream work with speed, precision, accuracy, flexibility and control never before achieved. BMT seamlessly integrates and adds value to disparate datastreams on demand and with complete accuracy. It is the best method to use for data transformation, data distribution, and application integration where speed and reliability are essential. BMT is the ultimate integration solution as it is technology-neutral and allows for complete plug-and-play flexibility.

Linguateq, Inc. is a privately held company based in McLean, Virginia. Linguateq offers Bit Management Technology for high-speed data translation and data distribution, regardless of hardware platform, communications protocol, exchange standard, data stream format, application vendor or technology infrastructure. Linguateq's patented technology simplifies the integration of business and technology strategies despite the inevitable and unpredictable changes to applications, infrastructure, business partners and competitive conditions.
