FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
VTECHLINK, the Leading 1-Stop Convergence Industry Intelligence Service, Launches 2nd Generation Site
Groundbreaking Service Features 1-Stop Web Site with Timely Intelligence on Broadband, Energy Utilities, Home Systems, Interactive Services and Telecom Sector
Glen Echo, Maryland, April 7, 2000 - The last few years have seen the convergence of multiple industry sector companies scrambling to take advantage of new growth opportunities in the consumer electronics market. The launching of VTECHLINK beta site changed tha by providing a single place to get timely and highly focused information on the convergence industries. The bar is being raised today with the launching of the 2nd generation VTECHLINK service and the corresponding upgrade to its
Web site.Under upgrade and further development, and carefully tested during the last several months, VTECHLINK has become the 1-stop site for all of the resources needed to stay up-to-date on the key developments in the multiple industries converging on the consumer electronic market place. "We have distilled the breadth of information available on the Web into useful intelligence through the disciplined focus of in-depth industry knowledge and experience - decades of real-life, hands-on, in-the-trenches kind of experience", said P. S. (Vish) Vishwanath, CEO of VTECHLINK.
"The deregulation sweeping through energy utilities, cable and telecom sectors, combined with the rising focus on Internet and the advancements in the home networking technologies have made keeping track of who is doing what, who is aligned with whom and who the players in this dynamically changing consumer marketplace extremely difficult. VTECHLINK was specifically designed to address the needs of the various entities that have a strong desire to stay on top of this area, but, do not want to waste a lot of time and resources to do so", added Vishwanath.
This service provides coverage of key developments related to products and services targeted at the consumer market, covering the activities of companies involved in
Currently, there is no single place one could go to get information covering the areas listed above. As a result, one has to either locate and visit multiple sites each time or waste a lot of time wading through hundreds of sites provided by popular search engines on the Internet. Both of these options are not particularly effective or productive.
The problem is further exacerbated by the increasing overlap between the industry sectors resulting in the need to be kept informed and carefully track key developments in these multiple industry sectors. Even after locating the site and the particular news item, one is faced with making sense of PR with no industry analysis behind it.
The Internet is a vast and ever growing collection of data, but, it lacks the focus that is essential for directly useful information. News wires and related news services provide almost real-time reporting of news, but, do not provide analysis that can only be provided by industry experts. VTECHLINK combines the strengths of the Internet and various news services with the knowledge of industry experts and data from field visits/meetings resulting in this unique one-stop strategic information service.
Given the high value and usefulness of this service, number of trade and other industry associations have already established partnering relationships to make this service available to their members.
