Softwork and Gamma to Distribute SkyeTek’s Full Line of HF and UHF Reader Technology in Italy, Poland and Russia

Westminster, Colorado, May 24, 2007 – SkyeTek, Inc., the leading provider of embedded RFID reader technology, continues to expand its global partner network with the addition of two more European value added resellers giving SkyeTek a total of nine VARs in the region. Softwork SrL and Gamma St. Petersburg will provide sales, systems integration, and support covering Italy, Poland and Russia. The new distribution partners will each carry SkyeTek’s full line of HF and UHF reader modules and ReaderWare software.

"Since opening our sales office in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, last year, we have continued to see robust growth in the European market. Given this market validation, we are broadening SkyeTek’s reach to enable the adoption of innovative RFID applications across all of Europe," noted Chris Turner, EVP of Sales and Business Development for SkyeTek. "These regions are exciting markets for our intelligent RFID technology, and we continue to see significant growth beyond traditional supply chain applications as our technology permeates new applications and market sectors."

"Our partnership with SkyeTek enables us to provide our growing customer base with the most advanced RFID technology at the best price possible," commented Massimo Damiani, CEO of Softwork SrL. "We can now offer comprehensive solutions, services and support to the rapidly developing market for embedded RFID technology in Italy. The new regulation decided by the European Commission on November 2006 for devices operating in UHF band allows us to propose a complete range of RFID products in new application areas, such as logistics, identification and traceability of goods."

Gamma St. Petersburg, a distributor of electronic components from the world’s leading manufacturers, selected SkyeTek’s technology to address growing demand for RFID applications in Russia and Poland. "SkyeTek delivers the high caliber RFID technology that our customers are seeking," noted Jan Surowiec of Gamma St. Petersburg. "Demand for RFID applications in Russia and Poland is the driving force behind our distribution partnership with SkyeTek. We are currently seeing the development of many new applications across multiple industries."

SkyeTek offers its technology to OEM customers or distributors as reader modules, which include a ReaderWare software license. Licensing provides customers with access to ReaderDNA reference designs, allowing them to integrate the technology directly into their product design and realize 40 to 70 percent cost savings versus a typical reader module.
