AMSTERDAM, October 10 /PRNewswire/ --

- Dutch Start-Up to Provide Products for Group Collaboration and Enhanced
Interaction

WunderWorks BV, a software and solutions company, focusing on improved
multi-user interaction and collaboration, announced today that it has raised
substantial seed round funding from two Dutch investment funds; Flevoland
Technofund and REOF Fund.

The company was founded in 2005 in the Netherlands by Mels Nieuwenhoven,
who envisioned the growing need for online and off-line interactive
electronic collaboration solutions. He was joined by coinvestor �rpád
Gerecsey in early 2006, to further the mission. Together with their
R&D team they have now created the technology that will enable groups of
people to work together in software applications and gaming, enhancing
collaborative group interaction, in-person, and across the Internet.

WunderWorks has created an environment that will allow multiple users to
connect multiple devices (ranging from keyboards and mice, to bluetooth
devices, interactive whiteboards, IP connections, writing tablets,
Wiimotes(R), etc.) to one PC. It then allows these users to interact and
cooperate in software applications. All applications are based on the
platform-independent MUSLTM architecture (Multi-User, Single-Location) which
WunderWorks developed in close cooperation with the research institutes TNO,
University of Utrecht and several technical Universities.

A first beta shipping example is WunderPoint(R), a Microsoft
PowerPoint(R) plug-in that will allow the presenter to make their
presentation interactive, and receive live feedback from the audience during
the presentation. Recent user experiences with customers such as
IBM/Netherlands, VNU Business Publications(Nielsen), Ministry of Traffic
(Dynavision), Van Den Kolk Events, and Hogeschool INHOLLAND, have experienced
the enhanced group productivity that is generated using the patentapplied-
for interaction technologies from WunderWorks

"Our use of the WunderWorks application suite transformed our ability to
enhance the interaction levels with our teams, thereby increasing our group
productivity by orders of magnitude," stated Theo Versnel from Dynavision,
one of WunderWork's first customers.

"In the last 50 years, the world gave birth to an astounding number of
electronic applications for single users. When sales reps, managing boards,
designers, classrooms or any other group got together, they were not able to
use these applications, because only ONE person could be in charge. From
now on, all participants, either physically attending or on-line, can
cooperate live on screen. This saves time, increases mutual understanding and
greatly improves on the results of the meeting as our irst customers, amongst
which IBM and the Ministry of Traffic, are already experiencing," said CTO
Nieuwenhoven.

Wunderworks Senior Management team is augmented by its strong industry
advisory team, which includes Prof. Dr. Mark Overmars, University of Utrecht,
Aldebert Wiersinga, Managing Director and Martijn Kruiswijk, associate, both
at Bilthoven's Value Creation & Company, Internet veteran Daniel Harple, and
his firm, Shamrock Ventures, BV.

Harple stated; "WunderWorks is the natural next step in the evolution of
social interaction with digital technology, it brings the digital world into
the physical world, and at the same time the user into the digital world.
Gamers in one room, physically competing with each other in a virtual
experience, management teams in one or more physical locations, brainstorming
in real time on a digital wall, shared with each other. Social network users
creating real time content and sharing with each other across multiple
physical locations, and stored for future access, clusters of users both
physical & virtually, like at a multi city concert series for raising money
and awareness on the environment or poverty."
