Interactive Telesis Announces New Corporate Headquarters
Expansion to Strengthen Company's Leadership Position in Speech Application Hosting
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 22, 2000--Interactive Telesis Inc., (OTC BB:TSIS - news), a leader in specialized interactive voice response (IVR) services and deployment of speech recognition technologies, today announced plans to re-locate and expand its corporate headquarters to Sorrento Valley, in San Diego's high-tech corridor. The new headquarters will host the Company's executive, sales, marketing, technology, finance, administrative, human resources and facilities staff, as well as the high-end equipment and carrier-grade capacity that supports the voice application needs of enterprise-class companies.
Scheduled for completion in late summer, the expansion project will enhance the Company's leadership position by providing direct access to a major network backbone. With redundant, high-bandwidth connections to the Internet, high speed interconnect ability for remote servers and a fault-tolerant fiber optic voice network, Interactive Telesis is well positioned to lead the convergence of voice and data via highly integrated speech recognition application hosting services.
According to Donald E. Cameron, president and CEO of Interactive Telesis, the move parallels the Company's strategy to achieve maximum growth as the premier hosting facility for speech-enabled applications. ``The timing for expansion is ideal in this explosive speech recognition industry,'' he said. ``With this move, Interactive Telesis has the expertise, the technology and the infrastructure to meet the needs of Global 1000 companies and start-ups alike.''
``The new headquarters will vastly increase our ability to offer businesses a secure, highly-scalable network for deploying complex speech applications,'' said Douglas Luke, Vice President of Operations for Interactive Telesis. ``Our ongoing investment in our infrastructure brings technological advancements that both innovate and improve our hosting services.''
