SAN FRANCISCO - May 21, 2003—Global technology PR specialist, Text 100, today announced Adweek Magazine's Technology Marketing has named it PR Agency of the Year 2003. Text 100 won the award because of its strong business performance, technology industry profile and client satisfaction. Against what has been described as the toughest market in the history of the PR industry, Text 100 grew its business thanks to impressive client wins - ARM, Brocade, NTT/Verio and Symbian - and continued to expand its global reach with office openings in China and Denmark.

In making the award, Technology Marketing carried out an extensive evaluation of the PR market. Text 100 was selected as Agency of the Year following interviews with clients and staff, office visits, assessments of reputation in the technology sector and a review of agency accomplishments in the previous 12 months.

This distinction is just one of Text 100's many stellar achievements. Other significant feats in the last year include expansion into Mainland China, launching a new global brand and Web site as well as restructuring its service offering-a move that allowed the company to better service client needs while increasing career opportunities for staff.

"Our global philosophy and passion for greatness has been with us for our 20 year history," said Aedhmar Hynes, CEO, Text 100 International. "This accolade is a materialization of the company's continued vision and its staff's commitment to always make the best better-offering our clients the highest quality, most consistent service and best results in every one of our offices worldwide."
