Airborne Entertainment Named by Deloitte as the Fourth Fastest Growing Tech Company in North America

Los Angeles, California, October 19, 2006 – Airborne Entertainment, a subsidiary of CYBIRD Co., Ltd. announced today that it has been selected as the fourth fastest growing technology company in North America, according to Deloitte’s 2006 Technology Fast 500, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications and life sciences companies in North America.  Rankings are based on percentage revenue growth over five years, from 2001–2005. Airborne grew 33,322% during this period.

Founded in 2000 by Internet executive Garner Bornstein and show business veteran Andy Nulman, Airborne Entertainment is considered a pioneer in mobile media.  Airborne works, and has worked, with such top-tier brands as Maxim Magazine, Family Guy, marykateandashley, the National Hockey League (NHL), Speed TV, HBO, the Walt Disney Company and Fox Filmed Entertainment. The company has also realized consistent quarter-over-quarter revenue growth since its inception.

Garner Bornstein, CEO of Airborne credits the company’s success to its “initial vision that consumers would perceive the cellphone as an increasingly vital personal device, and learn to expand the uses of it beyond simple conversation.”

“Six years ago, people doubted that this industry would even exist,” said Airborne CEO Garner Bornstein.  “The fact that it does, and that we have grown so fast within it, is a testament to our team who believed in our vision and carried it through even in the bleakest times.  We developed the technology, built relationships with the carriers and immersed ourselves in every brand we worked with.  It is this continued commitment from the team here at Airborne that has put us where we are today.  Of all the honors we have been given so far, this is by far the most gratifying.”

Overall, companies that ranked on the 2006 Technology Fast 500 had an average growth rate of 2,145 percent.

"Sustaining high revenue growth over five years is an exceptional accomplishment. We commend Airborne Entertainment for making the commitment to technology,” said Pierre Brodeur, Partner, Samson Bélair/Deloitte & Touche s.e.n.c.r.l.  “We are proud to honour Airborne Entertainment’s ranking on the Deloitte Technology Fast 500 list."
