Patriot Scientific Expands Marketing Reach With Key Appearances Before Targeted Customer Audiences in West, Southwest, East
Three Major Trade Shows Over Next 90 Days Offer Opportunity to Showcase Technology
SAN DIEGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 27, 2000-- Patriot Scientific Corp. (OTCBB:PTSC - news), the developer of the first, market-ready microprocessor for Java(TM), Thursday announced that it has accelerated its marketing efforts, and will make presentations to targeted customer audiences in five major technology-based cities over the next 90 days.
During that period, the company will meet with potential customers and investors in such key cities as San Jose, Calif., Austin, Texas, Costa Mesa, Calif., San Francisco and Boston, the latter involving two separate presentations.
``We are out there to sell the superior technology and intellectual property of our PSC1000 family of microprocessors, and to share the working examples of it with our targeted audiences '' said Jim Lunney, Patriot's president & chief executive officer. ``These three separate trade shows represent an extraordinary opportunity for us to connect with the decision-makers that are so critical to the future growth of our company. This is no longer a conceptual product, it is a compelling reality.''
Lunney said Patriot would initially participate in a four-city program at the invitation of its key silicon manufacturer for the PSC1000, Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Association (TSMC). TSMC, a world-renowned foundry for the manufacture of products such as Patriot's, has invited the company to be one of 25 exhibitors.
``Both TSMC and Patriot anticipate there will be considerable interest in our PSC1000 Intellectual Property cores, both soft and hard,'' Lunney said.
The first TSMC presentation will be held in San Jose on May 16, with additional meetings in Austin on May 18, Costa Mesa on May 19 and ending in Boston on May 25.
In June, the company will appear at the JavaOne conference, sponsored by Sun Microsystems Inc., now in its fourth year. Increasingly, these conferences have focused on the Java embedded systems marketplace, the foremost market target for Patriot. The company will be making its third consecutive appearance at this three-day conference of key technology decision-makers beginning June 7 in San Francisco.
One month later, at the Embedded Systems Conference -- Summer 2000 -- held in Boston, Patriot will participate in a three-day conference beginning July 10.
``As with our appearance in San Francisco, this is another outstanding opportunity to display the versatility of our microprocessor technology. We look at this as a very important expansion because it ramps up our East Coast marketing efforts,'' Lunney said.
``In every conference,'' Lunney concluded, ``we have one key message: every Java embedded application in our marketplace should be powered by Patriot.''
Founded in 1987, Patriot Scientific Corp. designs, markets and manufactures: the PSC1000, based on the patented ShBoom technology, a 32-bit microprocessor targeted at Java and Internet appliances as well as the traditional embedded systems markets; high-performance ISDN Basic Rate and Primary Rate products for digital communications and ground penetrating radar.
