Jerusalem, Israel, February 28, 2001

Launch of New Start-Up Unicorn™

A new generation of data infrastructure is being developed by Unicorn™ Solutions Inc., a new start-up based in San Francisco, California and Jerusalem, Israel. Unicorn™, launched on 01/01/01, has not yet released further details of its technology. The Company has identified a revolutionary and comprehensive approach to managing and integrating corporate data.

Unicorn™ was founded by Dr. Zvi Schreiber, a pioneer in the B2B space and Founder in October 1998 of Tradeum Inc., which was sold to VerticalNet in March 2000 for $500 million. Before Tradeum, Schreiber was the founding partner of a consulting company, IsraTec.

Schreiber is joined by Co-Founder Rannen Meir, the visionary behind AccessGear, a division of NDS Technologies. Meir was also a pioneer of e-commerce security and data management solutions. Previously, Meir served as VP of R&D at Pegasus Medical. Jonathan Beller, who has previously served in senior financial positions and as the CFO of the Israeli venture capital group, Jerusalem Venture Partners (JVP), joins Unicorn™ as its Director of Finance.

Commenting on the foundation of Unicorn™, Schreiber said, "Unicorn's data infrastructure architecture will provide immense value to the world's corporations who currently suffer from vast inefficiencies and cost in data management and integration. I am very excited about the team we are putting together to execute on this vision." Unicorn™ is currently based in Jerusalem's Malcha Technology Park with a highly experienced team of 15. It announced today the launch of a recruitment program for a full R&D team.
