Leading internet portal announces deal with Personal Broadcaster to create new Asia Pacific brand

The formation of N-Visio is the result of globally recognised internet portal eXcite (Japan), backed by the Japanese industry giant Itochu, and The Mobile Media Company forming a joint venture, where The Mobile Media Company contribute certain Asia Pacific assets and Excite (Japan) provides a cash investment.

The Mobile Media Company remains the largest shareholder in N-Visio, with the current Mobile Media Asia Pacific Management holding 32% of the initial shares. All existing Mobile Media Company Asia Pacific employees will be retained by the new company.

"This is a large opportunity for us,” says Karsten Hauge, CEO of The Mobile Media Company. “The investment of eXcite (Japan) delivers considerable new financial and business benefits and their extensive experience in the media and web space is an excellent match with Mobile Media’s expertise in mobilised content and services. We are pleased that eXcite (japan) has recognized the company’s Asia Pacific strengths, especially in China”

“By deploying technology and concepts from Mobile Media, we gain in N-Visio a new major customer which can localise our latest products and services to meet an expanded Asian strategy” , says Steinar Svalesen, Chief Operational Officer.

N-Visio will draw upon commercial and operational capabilities from both eXcite and The Mobile Media’s current service and product portfolios.
