International S.L, located in  Spain is a fast-growing provider in
developing software solutions for analyzing, interpreting and
delivering actionable information from large and complex datasets in
the financial industry, has decided to offer Members in Bridge network
to subscribe for limited shares in a “Private placement”, in december
to 14 January 2008 of 2,5 million Euros. <br/>
<br/>
Ravenpack´s financial advisor in this offering is <a href="http://www.mlcllc.com/"><span style="color: rgb(0, 204, 255);">McNamee Lawrence & Co</span></a>,
a licensed company, providing investment banking services to growth
oriented companies and investors around the world. McNamee Lawrence
& Co. have offices in Boston, London and San Francisco. <br/>
<br/>
<a href="http://www.ravenpack.com/"><span style="color: rgb(0, 204, 255);">RavenPack</span></a>
intends to raise an additional €4.5 million in early 2008 in
conjunction with the registration of the private placement securities
on an appropriate stock exchange and filing of a prospectus.  The
aggregate funds raised of €7 million will fund the provision of
services for Dow Jones subscribers, to further develop its technology
and product lines and to extend its sales network beyond <a href="http://www.dowjones.com/"><span style="color: rgb(0, 204, 255);">Dow Jones</span></a>.<br/>
<br/>
RavenPack business idea is to gathers information from any source to
which it is connected (newswire, RSS feed, etc.) and is then able to
read and interpret this information in real-time using proprietary
semantic analysis tools. <br/>
<br/>
The company has after many years of developing the software moved into
the early growth stage with  product and sales focus to generate
revenues. In February 2007, RavenPack and Dow Jones International ("Dow
Jones" or "DJ"), a recognized industry leader, at the forefront of an
emerging industry, agreed to collaborate and provide a new service to
Dow Jones customers. <br/>
<br/>
On April 26, 2007, RavenPack and Dow Jones introduced the product Dow
Jones News Analytics powered by RavenPack to the European market at the
TradeTech conference in Paris. In 2008 RavenPack expects a strong
growth in revnues from this partnership.<br/>
<br/>
Potentially years ahead of any competitor, RavenPack is in a
'first-to-market' position, in partnership with Dow Jones, RavenPack
further believes that its pipeline of products resulting from its
ongoing R&D effort will capture exciting revenue opportunities in
related, lucrative markets before a planned IPO within 12-36 months.<br/>
<br/>
In July 2007, demand for the product in North America compelled RavenPack and <a href="http://www.dowjones.com/"><span style="color: rgb(0, 204, 255);">Dow Jones</span></a>
to extend their commercialization agreement to geographically include
the United States.  In 2007, Dow Jones established a separate
Algorithmic Trading Business Unit, with a separate P&L, run by the
former head of Sales for the Americas. Dow Jones is investing heavily
in this unit with personnel and marketing resources and has established
aggressive revenue goals to dramatically grow this business unit over
the next 5 years.  <br/>
<br/>
The service has been well received and has generated a lot of interest
among prospective users and the financial press.  Information about
RavenPack’s technology has been published by hundreds of online and
print media sources including such names as the Wall Street Journal,
The Trade, Security Industry News, CNN Money, HedgeWeek, Financial Tech
Magazine, Inside Market Data, and Wall Street & Technology.  <br/>
<br/>
RavenPack’s service has been showcased from London to New York,
presented at all major tradeshows including TradeTech 2007 and the
European Financial Summit in London, and currently gaining strong
momentum across the financial industry.</p>
