- Company Profile
-
- The Visual Information Service Corp (VIScorp) was founded in 1990 to take
- advantage of the technological and marketplace developments now remaking
- the global communications media industry. In December 1995, the Company
- merged with Global Telephone & Communications, Inc., and VIScorp is now
- listed on the Over-The-Counter Bulletin Board (VICP).
-
- The Company's mission is to be a world leader providing easy-to-use and
- affordable technologies and services that permit the average television
- viewer to take advantage of the Internet, World Wide Web (Web), on-line
- services and interactive television (ITV). The Company is pursuing a
- product-development strategy to take advantage of current worldwide
- interest in networked interactivity by introducing a series of affordable
- products and services that connect the standard TV set and the telephone so
- that networked interactivity (and especially the Internet) can become a
- truly mass-market phenomenon.
-
- VIScorp plans to commence introducing the first of its product line during
- the 4th quarter 1996 and, by year-end 1997, introduce seven (7) products -
- as well as the supporting interactive applications and on-line services.
- This strategy positions VIScorp at the very center of rapidly emerging
- interactivity industry - the Internet, on-line services and ITV.
-
- The communications media industries are pursuing two separate - if parallel
- - paths to create the "information superhighway". The current interactive
- paradigm can be distinguished between the ITV strategy (promoted by
- telephone and cable-television companies) and the on-line strategy
- (promoted by computer, telecommunications and software companies). VIScorp
- offers an important alternative to this interactivity paradigm. It starts
- with the user-friendly TV set and links the viewer via a standard telephone
- line to the Internet, Web and on-line services as well as to a host of
- enhanced applications, including an on-line screen speaker-phone and
- address-book, fax messaging and interactive games. VIScorp products offer a
- means by which TV viewers can bridge the separate worlds of television,
- computing and telecommunications. The Companys products have been designed
- to transform the current generation TV set - be it NTSC, PAL or SECAM -
- into a sophisticated smart ITV center.
