GLOWE Glowpoint (MM)

Glowpoint, Inc. (NASDAQ: GLOWE), the world's leading broadcast-quality IP-based video communications service provider, today announced that it is presenting its Instant Video Everywhere (IVE) service at the Broadband Cities 2005 event in West Valley City, Utah, from September 19-21, 2005. The conference brings together hundreds of civic leaders, city managers, and broadband decision makers from the U.S. and around the world to experience best practices and innovations in community broadband deployment. The event taps into the vast capacity of the biggest community broadband project in the country, Utah's Telecommunications Open Infrastructure Agency (UTOPIA) network, which is delivering broadband for breakthrough, cost-effective Internet, phone and television services to homes and businesses in 14 Utah cities and communities. Broadband Cities 2005 features a simulated Broadband City complete with a mega broadband network where GlowPoint is showcasing its IVE (pronounced ivy) service as the personal video communications solution of the future. The IVE suite of services, powered by GlowPoint, enables users to conduct "face-to-face" video conversations with colleagues, friends and family as easily as using a telephone. IVE has been developed to move video beyond the standard conference room environment by extending across multiple uses including the desktop and mobile video communications for telecommuters, home office workers, business travelers and consumers. IVE incorporates GlowPoint's patent pending applications and advanced features including '000' Live Video Operators, Video Call Mailboxes, 'Lisa" the GlowPoint Video Call Assistant, Video Meeting Rooms, Direct Dial Video Numbers and GlowPoint Global international calling plans. "Broadband Cities 2005 has created a real life environment that illustrates how the proliferation of broadband access to local communities is contributing to the growing adoption of video communications both at the office and in the home," said Stuart Gold, vice president of marketing at GlowPoint. "We are proud to present IVE as an example of the kind of advanced, feature-rich video applications available today that can be deployed to local businesses and individuals who have access to broadband connectivity." Broadband Cities 2005 represents a confluence of Smart Communities across the Europe, Asia, North America, and the Middle East that are showcasing the value and applications of true broadband to the home, business, and institutions. Broadband Cities provides a unique venue to showcase how broadband can be fully exploited to generate improvements in the way we work, live, play and learn. Participants will see what is being made available to the rest of the word relative to their community, including services that their citizens may be missing out on, economic development opportunities that may be passing them by, as well as what is happening in Asia, Scandinavia, and the Middle East.
