Company Summary

We discovered a huge market no one is effectively targeting. With local search industry experience and an initial model case (LifeinKorea.com), we are the best ones to develop the concept of "Local Search 3.0," taking the traditional and limited concept of local search and expanding it to include truly local information, an interactive online community (including both the B2B and B2C spaces), and multilingual components to include ethnic groups.
