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.
