Totally Plc ("Totally" or "the Company")
Launches www.toplanguagecommunity.com Joint Venture
Totally Plc, the AIM quoted (ticker `TLY') international publisher and Internet
services provider today announces the launch of a new joint venture with the
UK's leading specialist online language recruiter, www.toplanguagejobs.com
(TLJ).
Together, Totally and TLJ have launched a new portal promoting a range of
online services including dating, directory, property, forums and general
classifieds targeting the fast growing communities of foreign language speakers
working or looking to work in the UK and Ireland.
According to the Office of National Statistics, as a result of the expansion of
the European Union the number of foreigners coming to work in the UK is growing
rapidly. In 2004 alone, over 500,000 people migrated to the UK, with Europe
being the most common continent of birth and young adults being the most common
age group.
Aytac Irfan, Managing Director of TLJ commented:
"This is a unique proposition which we believe will be highly attractive to the
fast growing communities of foreign language speakers currently working or
looking for work in the UK and Ireland. Totally's technology has proved
extremely flexible in supporting the multi language, community specific
requirements of our target market."
Under a joint venture agreement, the partners will share equally in all future
advertising and service related revenues. Totally provides use of its
proprietary online publishing software suite and TLJ provides marketing
distribution and editorial management.
Steve Burns, CEO of Totally Plc commented:
"Given the general trend of rising international migration this is an extremely
timely and exciting new business. By using our proprietary online publishing
software in partnership with community specific experts we expect to create new
revenue streams and potentially valuable assets."
