Innova Holdings Outlines RWT Strategy, Announces New CEO


FORT MYERS, Fla., Aug. 4, 2004 (PRIMEZONE) -- Innova Holdings, Inc. (OTCBB:IVHG) and Robotic Workspace Technologies have signed a definitive agreement whereby Innova will acquire RWT. This follows approval by the directors of each company. Final RWT approval is expected at a special shareholders meeting on August 9th. The transaction, scheduled to close on or about August 15th, is in keeping with Innova's strategy to grow by acquiring unique technology companies.

On behalf of Innova's Board of Directors, Martin Nielson (director in charge of acquisitions) stated, "We are very pleased to be joining forces with Robotic Workspace Technologies. The field of robotics is one of the great technology growth fields. RWT's patented technology and years of expertise provide a solid foundation for Innova's growth strategy."

RWT's products and services are built around three issued patents, numerous trademarks and significant intellectual property, including the Universal Robot Controller(tm) (URC(tm)), and RobotScript(r) software. These patented products transform the way robots and automated devices are programmed, operated, and upgraded. RWT's solutions and licensed technologies satisfy a wide variety of control requirements for Fortune 500 sized companies in North and South America, Europe and the Far East. Additional patents are pending, so this portfolio of innovative products with strong brand recognition provides a new platform for Innova's growth.

"Transforming our privately held company into a publicly traded firm means better access to many of the benefits we lack today. Our rich portfolio of patented products plus our 'founders' patents will offer other companies opportunities to embrace new methods and products by teaming with RWT and Innova," said Walt Weisel, RWT's founder and a seasoned industry professional, who will become Chairman and CEO of Innova at closing.
