DALLAS --
Under the terms of the agreement, Coollink and WYNTRAC, Inc. will create a co-branded solution encompassing Coollink's streaming capabilities through Attend and WYNTRAC's® on-demand meeting planning and tracking features. By combining the software capabilities of both companies, attendees and exhibitors can manage every aspect of the conferencing process including planning, registration and attendance from a remote location via the Internet or CD-Rom.
Coollink's proprietary compression software will provide the end-user with a high quality virtual teaching and presentation medium. Various components of this solution include a presentation window, transcribed text, foreign language capabilities, and streamed video of conference keynote addresses, presentations and seminars.
WYNTRAC® allows every participant involved in the planning process, including event organizers, attendees, call center technicians and on-site coordinators to access database information vital to effectively execute the event. WYNTRAC® also provides event planners with the yield management data to help them analyze the cost effectiveness of an event.

"By combining Coollink's streaming capabilities with WYNTRAC, Inc.'s expertise in the meetings and conventions arena, we offer conference planners an innovative, high tech application to increase reach, and revolutionize the information experience. It also offers consumers a chance to remotely experience these conferences for the first time from the comfort and convenience of their desktops."
"Tying together all of the elements of meeting and convention planning, housing and registration is one of the keys to success in the industry," said Michael Foster, president of WYNTRAC, Inc. "This is proven by the success and growth of agencies that offer 'one-stop shopping' for every service. Now, with technology, the race is on to put all these service elements together in a simple, easy-to-use package, via the Internet. WYNTRAC, Inc.'s association with Coollink gives WYNTRAC® the cutting-edge advantage in video streaming and e-commerce advertising.
