BERKELEY, CA--(Marketwire - July 16, 2009) - TimeBridge today announced that
it has been selected to the 2009 AlwaysOn
Global 250 List. The AlwaysOn Global 250 Award is given to private,
emerging technology companies creating new business opportunities in
high-growth markets. TimeBridge was selected by the AlwaysOn editorial team
based on demonstration of growth, market opportunity, quality of
innovation, and customer traction.
"TimeBridge is honored to be recognized by AlwaysOn as one of the most
innovative SaaS and Enterprise companies in their Global 250 List," said
Yori Nelken, founder and CEO of TimeBridge. "As people increasingly
struggle to work across a variety of technologies, we're proud of the work
we have done towards making it easier to get together and have great
meetings. This award validates the importance of our vision of a seamless
meeting process where the focus is on real actions instead of tedious
logistics."
TimeBridge and the other AlwaysOn Global 250 winners will be recognized at
the AlwaysOn & STVP Summit at Stanford, taking place at Stanford University
in Palo Alto, CA, on July 28-30. This two-and-a-half day executive
conference, co-presented by the Stanford Technology Ventures Program, will
highlight the significant economic, political and commercial trends
affecting the global technology industries.
"It's no secret that technology and innovation are vital to bringing our
country out of economic recession," said Tony Perkins, founder and editor
of AlwaysOn. "The companies on this year's list have not only created
innovative technologies that solve real business problems, but have
stimulated economic growth through the generation of new jobs. I
congratulate every winner selected for this year's award and wish them all
tremendous success in the future."
The AlwaysOn Global 250 winners were selected from among hundreds of other
technology companies nominated by investors, bankers, journalists and
industry insiders. The AlwaysOn editorial team conducted a rigorous
three-month selection process to finalize the 2009 list.

professionals a faster, more efficient way to schedule their time.

way to schedule meetings
with large groups or individuals across time zones, calendaring systems and
companies. TimeBridge allows users to easily schedule meetings, share their
availability with others, and connect directly with calendars including
Outlook, Google Calendar and Apple iCal. While online calendars help users
