Advanced Technology Industries, Inc. (OTCBB: AVDI )

Dear Reader,

Recently, the editors of StockUpTicks’ visited Manhattan to meet with management of a new company that had been recommended as a potential subject for ongoing coverage for our one million readers. We had been told that this fairly young company was a strong turnaround story and that they had a few strong patents we’d be interested in.

What we found upon arrival at the offices of Advanced Technology Industries Inc. (OTCBB: AVDI), was a company effectively completing the last leg of a dynamic turnaround with more than a few strong patents.  We also found a talented management team making things happen from Australia to New York to Germany… all while incubating potentially enormous agreements with leading major brands worldwide.

Our editors completed a getting-to-know-you meeting and walked into the streets of the Big Apple, each with the same impression: This is the right story for us to bring our StockUpTick’s readers.

We know that our readers love patents and technology… you’ve told us as much over the last five years.  And AVDI is loaded with both… and then some.

Not only does this company have a diverse stream of patents and inventions, it also has exclusive rights to the fountains of both. In fact, while AVDI brings to market some revolutionary ideas that we will expand on later, they also have secured rights to the creative mind behind these innovations. 

What we can tell you now is that we were so impressed with AVDI that we agreed to the longest program of coverage we have ever engaged in with a company. We truly believe there’s so much here with the bounty of ideas and news that it’s going to take numerous installments from us to get all the information to you.

From our view, this company is simply like holding a handful of lottery tickets.

About Advanced Technologies

Advanced Technology Industries, Inc. has been a leader in acquiring technologies and intellectual properties that have been introduced and developed by scientists throughout the world, primarily originating in Israel, Russia, and Germany. 17 months ago, management at AVDI and management at the privately-held LTDnetwork Inc., began positioning the two companies for a merger. Combining the technologies that AVDI has acquired and the proprietary software of LTDnetwork, the emerging company will integrate the combined resources into a single force in the software-technology market.

Effective streamlining of operations and certain restructuring steps following the pending merger are anticipated to include: appointing a new board of directors of AVDI and current management of LTDnetwork assuming management positions at AVDI. It is also expected that such new management will assemble a skilled, U.S. based sales team that will begin implementing its strategic plans shortly following the merger. 

Together with the in-house media resources of LTDnetwork, the new AVDI is expected to launch a public relations campaign to publicize the combined companies' highly innovative products. Following the merger, AVDI plans to close its Berlin office and relocate its headquarters to New York City. 

Founded in October 2000, LTDnetwork Inc., a US based company, has spent the last three years creating unique proprietary software at its Australian subsidiary in Melbourne. 

Specializing in the development of innovative Technologies, Software, and Services for online e-tailers, price comparison Internet shopping, Internet gaming, advertising, and media and marketing, LTDnetwork’s vision is to provide online businesses and third party solution providers with tools that always target the consumer with the right message at the right time, in what have now become the "hottest areas" for software applications including: music downloading, automatic price comparison and highly targeted advertising.

The digital rights management features have been developed by LTDnetwork Inc., for installation into Singwell's Qtrax product. The ease of incorporation of this software into any P2P is likely to encourage other applications. The products will be launched in the 3rd quarter, 2004.

LTDnetwork also has developed digital rights management software (see press release and related links below) for initial installation into Singwell's Qtrax product that may revolutionize the music industry by providing a viable solution to allow artists to benefit from their songs, in the free downloading environment. The LTDnetwork software facilitates a middle ground between the record industry, songwriters, publishers and the downloading software industry. The software attaches digital rights management features to the mp3 files and automatically reports song plays to BMI (while retaining user anonymity), prevention of downloading of the material for use on other devices without the payment of a fee, and ensuring the songs can only be shared with other Qtrax customers.

In addition, LTDnetwork also operates over 350 specialty e-tail sites utilizing a range of software products that are designed to facilitate and enhance the purchasing experience of both its own customers and those of leading Internet companies that utilize the products under joint venture or licensing arrangements.a

LTDnetwork is a Microsoft certified  .Net Connected Developer.

NEW YORK, May 18, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- U.S. performing rights organization, BMI, LTDNetwork Inc. and Singwell International announced yesterday that they have completed a licensing agreement for peer-to-peer technologies designed to enable consumers to download and play songs for free on their PCs, while revenue from targeted advertising will fund the distribution of royalties to artists.

President and CEO, Allan Klepfisz, believes that this alliance may revolutionize the industry by providing a viable solution to allow artists to benefit from their songs, in the free P2P environment. ``This software alters the file type thereby permanently attaching digital rights management features to the mp3 files. These include automatic reporting of song plays to BMI (while retaining user anonymity), prevention of downloading of the material for use on other devices without the payment of a fee, and ensuring that the songs can only be shared with others that have the Qtrax software installed that will guarantee that these same features are operating.
