FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

DALLAS, TEXAS -- Whichbox Media, a Dallas-based online publishing technology company has been selected as a winner of the annual New York Venture Summit Top Innovator award by youngStartup Ventures. WhichBox Media recently won the OnMedia 100 Award and was featured at Worlds Best Technologies. The “Top Innovator” list of privately held companies recognizes those that play a leading role in innovation for the Technology, Life Sciences and Clean-tech sectors. As one of the winners, Bettina Bennett, Co-Founder, CEO and Chief Maverick of WhichBox Media will present the company at the exclusive 2010 New York Venture Summit on June 17th in New York City, where a select group of 450 entrepreneurs, investors, and corporate developers will gather to be the first to meet this next wave of leading edge companies.

whichbox™ is a revolutionary and award-winning, next generation CMS and online publishing platform developed by publishing and media experts, for publishers and media companies. Delivered as a Software as a Service (SaaS), whichbox™ was built from the ground up to be an affordable, turnkey, all-in-one platform designed to empower online publishers, media companies and brands to re-focus on their core competencies: creating compelling and engaging content, delivering it across multiple technology platforms (web, iPhone, iPad etc.), connecting with their audience in an authentic and engaging way, and monetizing that experience.

The New York Venture Summit, presented by youngStartup Ventures, is the premier industry gathering where cutting-edge startups meet top venture capitalists, angel investors, Corporate VCs and investment bankers.

Bettina Bennett commented, “We’re excited about the award and what it says about our company. We’re still in closed private beta! whichbox™ is the result of years of planning by our team of media, publishing and Internet pioneers. We believe, whichbox™ will revolutionize the way publishing and media companies create, manage, distribute and monetize their content – and perhaps most importantly, grow their audiences. Merely having an “app” does not mean better monetization or audience growth. Better audience experience and engagement is at the core of making the new online publishing paradigm work.”
