Sinobiomed Enters the Social E-Commerce Marketplace via License of Sitoa’s Software Technology and Shareholders Approve Name Change to Sitoa Global Inc.
SAN CARLOS, California – June 8, 2011 – Sinobiomed Inc. (OTCQB: SOBM) (the “Company”), an e-commerce facilitator, today announced a shift in its corporate focus to enter the social e-commerce and online retailing media market space, through its entry into a non-exclusive licensing agreement with Sitoa Corporation (the “Licensing Agreement”).
The Licensing Agreement grants the Company a worldwide license to deploy, utilize, and market Sitoa network and platform software technology (the “Technology”) in exchange for shares of the Company’s common stock. The Company expects that it will be able to use the Technology to build and manage leading online marketplaces that effectively join consumer communities with online retailers that cater to their interests. The Technology provides an easy-to-use and comprehensive platform and infrastructure that enables online retailers to deploy social marketplace e-commerce sites around consumer communities that are interested in what such retailers have to offer, and to expand their sales channels without the risks of focus dilution or increased capital and operating costs that typically accompany significant growth campaigns. The Company expects to charge one-time integration and hosting fees for each such online market site, as well as share in the revenues generated by such site.
“We are excited about our prospects moving forward with this world-class technology that has a proven 10 year track record of increasing online e-commerce sales,” commented George Yu, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. “We believe that the Sitoa marketplace platform is a critical building block to the next stage of e-commerce - the social e-commerce marketplace.”
In connection with the Company’s shift in focus, the Company plans to change its name to Sitoa Global Inc., effective upon the filing of a Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware following the expiration of the 20-day period mandated by Rule 14c of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. In anticipation of the name change, the Company’s common stock will be quoted under the symbol “STOA,” effective as of June 8, 2011.
