Intraco Systems, Inc. (OTC BB:INSY), a leading provider

of virtual office services and applied speech recognition technology, has appointed Citrix executive and ASP Consortium Chairman Traver Gruen-Kennedy to its Advisory Board.

"As Intraco continues to build out its virtual office and speech recognition solutions, Traver's extensive knowledge and vision provide our advisory board with a powerful resource for insight into the ASP industry," said Walt Nawrocki, CEO of Intraco Systems. "The launch of our new X-Site Total Office services suite positions us as the first service provider to offer speech enabled services. The addition of Traver, who is an undisputed leader in the application services industry, only reinforces the fact that Intraco is at the leading edge of an exciting new market."

Mr. Gruen-Kennedy's appointment to the board of advisors at Intraco will strengthen the company's strategic approach as it grows into new markets and begins providing its next level of total office services and applied speech recognition technology. As Vice President, Strategy for Citrix Systems, Inc., he has worldwide responsibility for strategic planning.

"Intraco is at the forefront of an exciting growth market and currently the only company working with speech recognition technology - one of the truly innovative and practical technologies emerging today - in an ASP model," said Traver Gruen-Kennedy. "As a new member of their advisory board, I look forward to working with their experienced staff and helping to position their unique services."

Mr. Gruen-Kennedy is also serving his second term as Chairman of the ASP Industry Consortium, an international advocacy group formed to champion and set worldwide standards for the ASP industry. In this role, working with the World Intellectual Property Organization, Mr. Gruen-Kennedy has helped form the ASP Arbitration, Mediation and Dispute Resolution Center, an international organization that is working toward creating a system that would allow ASPs to provide their customers with services through a single contract recognized in 175 countries.

Mr. Gruen-Kennedy's vision of the convergence of IT and telecommunications with a new global legal and audit infrastructure is now widely accepted around the world as the future of software technology, e-business and the Web. Earlier this year, he was named a technology pioneer at the acclaimed 2000 World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. He is recognized as a valuable source on the industry and is frequently quoted in major media outlets including The Wall Street Journal, Financial Times, Fortune and CNN. He was also named one of the "25 Most Powerful People in Networking" by Network World magazine.

Prior to joining Citrix, Mr. Gruen-Kennedy served as a consultant, developing corporate strategies for technology suppliers Lucent Technologies, Sun Microsystems, Nortel, Teledesic and Xerox. He has also contributed to policy development and legislation with the International Telecommunications Union, The Federal Communications Commission and the United States Senate.

Intraco is pioneering a new generation of virtual office solutions that integrate voice and data with applied speech recognition technology. X-Site Operator, the latest addition to Intraco's X-Site Total Office suite of services, is the first remotely-hosted and web-administered voice powered call routing service on the market. Providing complete IT and telephony solutions for small to medium-size businesses, Intraco serves a market that consists of over 95% of businesses in the U.S., according to a recent survey of small business in The Standard. By remotely hosting customers' voice and data servers and applications, Intraco's X-Site Total Office dramatically reduces the high costs associated with the purchase, maintenance and upgrades of high tech systems.
