OPTIVIEW TECHNOLOGIES BOLSTERS MANAGEMENT TEAM WITH ACQUISITION OF BODOMA

High-tech Veteran Donna Hemmert Named CEO

DULLES, VA – March 15 – OptiView Technologies (www.optiview.com), leading provider of Web content acceleration services, announced it has acquired Bodoma, Inc., a high-tech management consulting firm, to fortify its management team. Bodoma partner and former Netscape and Roku Technologies executive Donna Hemmert has been named OptiView's Chief Executive Officer.

Building upon OptiView's existing customer base of 18,000 customers and millions of optimized images, the new executive team of skilled technology and management professionals is charged with setting product direction and undertaking an aggressive sales and marketing effort. OptiView's products transparently optimize Web site graphics, decreasing page download times and bandwidth requirements, while at the same time maintaining physical size—without visibly decreasing image quality.

"We initially commissioned Bodoma to evaluate our corporate strategy and reposition OptiView based on market forces," said OptiView co-founder and CTO Tom Kirchman. "We were extremely impressed with their level of intelligence and integrity, and believe they are the perfect complement to our technical staff and administrative team."

"Without the benefit of a sales and marketing effort, OptiView has generated an 18,000-person customer base, including companies such as Excite and CBS SportsLine," said CEO Hemmert. "With that strong foundation, we're now taking OptiView out of the garage with a next-generation series of products and an aggressive sales and marketing effort. The company has the recipe for exponential growth, and we are thrilled to be driving the expansion."

Showcasing 11 years of management experience, Hemmert is an accomplished leader with over six years of expertise driving marketing programs and forming strategic, multimillion-dollar partnerships in the Internet industry. Prior to Bodoma, Hemmert was Vice President of Marketing for peer-to-peer (P2P) software company Roku Technologies, and previously held high-level positions at Netscape Communications, PSINet, and InterCon Systems Corporation.

In addition to OptiView co-founders Thomas and Linda Kirchman, Hemmert is joined by former Bodoma executives Todd Girvin (Vice President of Product Development) and Bob Lentz (Vice President of Strategy). Combined, these executives have garnered experience at such companies as TRW, Roku Technologies, ObjectSpace, Coopers & Lybrand, AT&T Bell Labs, and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
