MediaSpark Wins AMTEC Award of Excellence
for Best Interactive, Instructional CD-ROM

NOVA SCOTIA, June 7, 2000 - MediaSpark IT Solutions Inc., a Canadian software development company, captured yet another national award at a Media Festival recently held during the Association for Media and Technology in Education in Canada (AMTEC) 2000 conference in Vancouver, BC.

GoVenture® - Live the Life of an Entrepreneur received the AMTEC Award of Excellence for Best Interactive, Instructional
CD-ROM. This is the second time within the past six months GoVenture has brought home the gold. It previously won three of the 15 awards, including Best Canadian Entry, at the International Atlantic Digital Media Festival (ADMF).

MediaSpark President and CEO Mathew Georghiou said, "These wins are a reflection of the skill and dedication of our team, and highlight the potential of our business model as we emerge from a lengthy research and development phase. GoVenture has already garnered the attention of major industry players and we expect to be making some important announcements in the coming weeks."

GoVenture - Live the Life of an Entrepreneur is a simulation-based, experiential e-Learning system designed to be the most innovative and comprehensive solution for entrepreneurship education and training - primarily targeting those who wish to
learn about small business and entrepreneurship as a career or personal development opportunity. The simulation's engaging interface allows you to experience the complex requirements of running a business while balancing your personal life. GoVenture is currently shipped on a CD-ROM and is supported by comprehensive Teacher/Student print materials and the upcoming GoVenture.NETwork Internet Portal, which will be launched later this month.

"We're pleased that GoVenture continues to gain attention as a world-class product. GoVenture has been a winner in both of the award shows we have entered so far, and we expect many more awards to come," added Wanda Jerrett, Product Marketing Manager for MediaSpark.
