LOS ANGELES and HONG KONG, Aug. 7, 2008 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Artificial Life, Inc., (OTCBB:ALIF) (www.artificial-life.com), a leading provider of mobile 3G technology, participation TV, mobile games and business applications, announced today that it will expand direct business activities in the USA and launch an office in Los Angeles in the third quarter of 2008.
"After many years of doing business successfully in Asia and Europe we are about to return our focus to where we originally started - in the USA. Our business is expanding strongly and we have won many major clients and partners in the USA, especially in California. Therefore, we have decided to open an office in Los Angeles to be close to the big media companies, the carriers, the gaming companies, the music industry and the major Hollywood studios. However, our activities in the USA will focus on sales, marketing and client support. Production will remain mostly in Asia due to the lower cost basis there," said Eberhard Schoneburg, CEO of Artificial Life, Inc.
