INDIGOMEDIA NAMED GLOBAL LEADER IN E-ENTERTAINMENT.

The World Summit Awards were started in 2003 in the framework of the United Nations World Summit on Information Society as an initiative from Austria and has become the world's premier contest for excellence in e-content and e-creativity. This year a jury of leading international multimedia experts considered 24,000 nominations from around the world. Forty companies, professional organizations, and government agencies were named World Summit Award winners.

Professor Peter Bruck, chairman of the board, World Summit Award, said, "The WSA is a unique mechanism to search and find out which quality contents exist around the world and how they meet criteria such as depth of content, ease of use, value adding of interactivity, aesthetics of design and interface, and technical realization."

The e-entertainment category evaluates the quality and creativity of interactive entertainment, synergy between analog and digital platforms, and success in moving from one-way to two-way communication. In addition to e- entertainment, WSA's were given for achievement in e-government, e-learning, e-health, e-culture and e-science.

Ramon Alberto Garza, founder and CEO of IndigoMedia, received the award at the Annual Conference of the Global Forum on Shaping the Future in Venice, Italy. According to Mr. Garza, "We are deeply honored to receive the World Summit Award for e-entertainment. Indigo's success is a good reflection of the enthusiasm in Mexico for innovative online content. But it also demonstrates how the digital revolution is breaking down barriers among counties and cultures. I believe that the IndigoMedia experience can and will quickly spread beyond Mexico."
