technology.
LoudVox has relationships with local Web development and animation developers to ensure it
can deliver Macromedia Flash and future audio-enabled multimedia programming and

According to Arbitron, the
number of Web sites that use streaming audio and video will double in the next two
years.said LoudVox President, Dana Greenlee, a former L.A. radio personality who
recently worked at Amazon.com. LoudVox will be a pioneer in the development of
programs for this exploding market.
More and
more high-tech companies are looking for a way to attract and keep users to their Web
sites. Dana and LoudVox are perfectly positioned to provide streaming media services to
these companies, said Scott Bourne, who provided initial seed funding for LoudVox.
Bourne is principal of the Scott Bourne Consulting Group in Tacoma and was founder of
NetRadio.com.
LoudVox is the second company to
receive funding from BigGarden Ventures LLC, a Tacoma-based venture capital firm founded
by veteran journalist and Internet executive Mitch Ratcliffe. BigGarden is the Pacific
Northwest member of an international venture network, Empyrean Ventures, with locations in
the San Francisco Bay Area, Europe and, soon, multiple Asian and New York operations.
LoudVox is poised at the
brink of huge opportunity, Ratcliffe said. BigGarden is prepared to help the
company through rapid growth and international expansion of its business.
