Kostech Corp. Brings Microsoft & Dell Powered Services To The Investment Community
RENO, NEV. (June 23) BUSINESS WIRE -June 23, 1998--A unique interactive service developed by Kostech Corp. is now aiding companies and Investor Relations firms by placing investor packets online complete with full color pictures of products, research reports, and statements from company officials.
Streaming audio and video are even available.
The Website, named Virtual Investor Relations(tm), utilizes a feature rich interface which presents an online version of each individual company's investor packet allowing potential investors to view information in a familiar interface without having to call the company and wait for a conventional mailing.
All information including news and SEC documents is continuously updated, freeing IR representatives from the mundane task of re-assembling packets as information changes. "Keeping all of a company's data on our own servers means we can ensure fast news, SEC, and quote retrieval. It also means we are not sending potential investors off to anyone else's sites for the information they need. It's a very focused and responsive system," says James Kosta, chief executive officer of Kostech. "We make use of only the latest Micron (NYSE:MU), Dell (Nasdaq:DELL), and Digital (NYSE:DEC) servers. Server software from Microsoft (Nasdaq:MSFT), Sun Microsystems (Nasdaq:SUNW), and Netscape (Nasdaq:NSCP) make our services very robust. It has been a very expensive system to put in place, but we are prepared for quite a lot of traffic."
Virtual IR also allows investors to include themselves on each company's electronic mailing list if they wish to receive news and company statements as they are released. These mailings are done by Virtual IR at no additional charge. This feature has been extremely well received by the IR community as it represents a substantial cost savings over conventional mailing and taxing methods and its ability to automatically manage lists of interested investors.
Kosta stated, "We are pleased with consumer reaction to our newest venture. Investors have already become so comfortable with our interface, that they have requested information on all new companies as soon as we put them up. Brokerage firms and institutional investors have told us that they love the service. We are quickly becoming the de facto standard for on-line investor relations. We have formed relationships with some very well known industry figures over the last year, giving us plenty of room to expand our services. Our large-scale approach to online investor relations allows us to price our services very reasonably for the results we've seen."
