BUDAPEST, HUNGARY 2/21/08 -- Power of the Dream Ventures (PDV), one of Hungary's premier technology acquisition companies, is pleased to announce the acquisition of an environmentally friendly process invented for the homogenous mixing of water with gasoline for use in internal combustion engines. The invention allows for up to 40% water to be mixed with gasoline through a proprietary process based on ultrasonic principles.

Prior to the acquisition, PDV conducted a lengthy due diligence effort to thoroughly understand the benefits, risks, and potential pitfalls of the process.

"One of the main goals of our business is to seek out technologies that can have a 'disruptive' effect on one or more established industries. Fortunately Hungary abounds in these. When we were first presented with the idea for this invention we were skeptical. The months spent on background checks, understanding of the technology, and the finances involved in implementing this invention made an overwhelming business case. Considering that the technology was established to be patentable, and that it was demonstrated, it was decided an acquisition was the best course of action to purse." said Viktor Rozsnyay, President of the Company.

"The technological bases of this process are sound. All of the sub components are in use by industry, however no one has thought of putting them together in this fashion before. Given the immense potential, all of the PDV executive team was eager to pursue this opportunity." added Mihaly Zala, Chief Technology Officer of the Company.

The technology transfer agreement stipulates that when all testing is complete and the technology is commercialized, its inventor, Otto Buresch, is entitled to receive 40% of net proceeds from all commercial activities.

"This technology has the potential to revolutionize transportation by greatly reducing gasoline consumption and emissions. Given the fact our company already manages a number of promising and market ready 'green' technologies, this green-tech addition was a natural and prudent choice." concluded Daniel Kun, Vice President of the Company.

Patenting of the technology is currently ongoing. A full scale technology demonstrator prototype is in the design phase and is expected to be built by the end of Q2, 2008. Following extensive testing, both of the technology, its life cycle, and potential corrosive effect (if any) of engines a full disclosure will be made available. If proven, licensing opportunities will be sought with automotive manufacturers worldwide.
