PrecisionIR Announces 2006 Schedule of Investor Forums
Interested Companies Invited to Participate in Twenty-Seven Analyst-Style Forums that Will Connect Investors and Company Executives
Richmond, VA –November 17, 2005 – PrecisionIR from WILink plc (LSE: WLK or WLK.L), a worldwide provider of online investor relations services and web-based communications solutions, today announced its 2006 schedule of 27 Informed Investors Forums. The forum schedule focuses primarily on the life sciences, oil / gas / energy, metals and mining, and small cap / growth sectors. These sector-specific forums will feature corporate executives presenting to institutional and high net-worth investors who are following the specific company or industry. Each forum will also feature a keynote speaker such as a Wall Street analyst or an investment newsletter editor to give an industry overview.
Informed Investors Forums are virtual and/or onsite events, which allow attendees to hear “straight from the source” information from companies they are tracking. The investors who attend these events are typically experienced investors with an average net worth of $1,056,522 and an average household income of $174,788, as identified by WILink’s investor demographic research. The format is similar to an institutional conference where a senior executive gives an overview of the company’s operations, strategic plan and a business outlook. The 30-minute segments include PowerPoint presentations followed by question and answer sessions. All forums are available by archive after the event on http://www.informedinvestors.com.
The 2006 forum schedule covers a diverse range of industry sectors, including closed end funds, energy, security, and pharmaceutical / biotechnology / healthcare.
