STARNET COMMUNICATIONS INTERNATIONAL INC. HIRES U.S. BASED PUBLIC RELATIONS FIRM
Wilmington, DE, February 19, 1998 - Starnet Communications International Inc. (NASD OTC-BB: SNMM) ("Starnet") is pleased to announce that it has engaged Marketing Direct Concepts, Inc. ("MDC") to assist in Starnet's investor relations.
MDC (http://www.mdcinc.com) is a corporate business development and public relations company operating from the gaming community of Las Vegas, Nevada. MDC uses a comprehensive, international approach in reaching and motivating potential investors: media relations, publication in MDC's proprietary website and print newsletters, and a database of American stockbrokers, fund managers and stock analysts.
"At MDC, our focus is on positive, bottom-line results," said CEO Michael Calderone: "heightened investor awareness, enhanced corporate credibility, increased trading activity and favorable stock valuation."
Starnet (www.starnetcommunications.com) is an interactive entertainment company that identifies and commercializes Internet technologies for established markets.
Starnet's wholly owned subsidiary World Gaming Services Inc. (www.worldgaming.net) is a full-service gaming system (casino games, sports betting, lottery ticket sales, horseracing) licensed to accept real-money wagers via the Internet. World Gaming's sister subsidiary, Softec Systems Caribbean Inc. (www.softecsystems.com), licenses turn-key, customized Internet gaming systems (similar to World Gaming) to eligible third parties in exchange for participation in those licensees' net gambling revenues.
PC Computing magazine has estimated that the Internet gaming market could reach $20 billion US in annual revenues by the turn of the century.
Starnet's relationship with Global Media (Canada) Corp. has been terminated, and it is expected that a U.S. based public relations firm may more effectively target prospective Starnet investors.
