announced the addition of four new members to the company's executive leadership and the opening of three additional offices to accommodate the company's rapid user growth and to pursue strategic partnerships like its recently announced venture with SINA Corporation  -- China's largest online media company.

The company has achieved tremendous momentum, with a series of partnerships and dramatic growth in its user base to over 2 million users, with several thousand new users being added every day. The company has moved its headquarters from Houston, TX to its new location in Palo Alto, in the heart of the Silicon Valley, as well as opening new offices in Beijing and Bangalore to give Berggi an expanded global presence. The Houston office will remain as an operations center for Berggi's new mobile video services.

New additions to Berggi's executive team are Reddy Karri, Dr. Will Wei Lin, Alfredo Exposito and Chuck Monte.

Reddy Karri, General Manager, Berggi Global Partnerships

Karri joins Berggi from SGT, and previously was at DataCert and I2 as VP Engineering and Operations. Karri is based out of Berggi's new Palo Alto office.

Dr. Will Wei Lin, Manager, China, Berggi Global Partnerships

Lin is based in Beijing, leading Berggi's partnership business development in China and the company's Beijing office. Lin joined Berggi from Hewlett-Packard, and brings with him a considerable amount of customer and client development experience in Asia.

"I am intrigued by the sophistication and ambition of Berggi's global focus," said Dr. Lin. "I see this as an exciting opportunity to be involved firsthand in a true globalization experience. Berggi has the right environment and an amazing array of talent and diversity with which to make this happen. It's going to be a learning experience of immeasurable value, with enormous potential in this emerging industry."

Alfredo Exposito, Manager, Europe, Berggi Global Partnerships

Based in Madrid, Exposito joined Berggi to lead the company's partnership business development in Europe. Exposito, an expert in consumer mobile downloadable premium applications and content, was previously at Buongiorno US, the US subsidiary of the world's largest provider of consumer mobile premium content.

Chuck Monte, Director, Product Management, Berggi Navento Global Partnership

Monte, a veteran consumer mobile product inventor and developer specializing in innovations for next-generation mobile, will be based in Palo Alto, CA. He joined Berggi to lead Berggi's location based mobile product development and management in partnership with Navento. Monte is joining Berggi from Mobio, an innovative Silicon Valley mobile applications firm. Monte is the original creator of the OGO messenger from IXI Mobile, and led the creation of one of the earliest and most innovative instant messaging hand-set and mobile IM applications in the world.

"As a 30-year product development veteran, you see all kinds of technologies and work with every kind of visionary. In the end, you learn that killer products come from people -- not technology," Monte said about his decision to join Berggi. "Beyond all else, the Berggi team is incredibly dedicated, and inspiring people guided my decision to join the team."

"I'm genuinely thrilled to be making these great additions to our management team," said Babur Ozden, CEO of Berggi. "Chuck is a true visionary in next-generation mobile technologies and is going to bring tremendous new insight to our product management effort. Strategic partnerships are critical to the company's success, and having regional leadership in this area is going to give us a huge boost. I have tremendous respect for what Reddy, Will and Alfredo have accomplished professionally. It's a testament to Berggi's technology and business model that we could attract them."
