Wi2Wi Momentum Builds Up with its Industrial-Class GPS Products for M2M and Portable Device Markets

Toronto, ON, June 25, 2013 /FSC/ - Wi2Wi Inc. (YTY - TSX Venture),  ("Wi2Wi" or the "Company"),("Wi2Wi" or the "Company"), is pleased to announce that it is experiencing significant demand build-up in its Industrial-Class GPS business. Market and customer traction continues to accelerate for Wi2Wi's third generation GPS products, W2SG0008i and W2SG0084i, with over 22 design-wins and 16 design-ins. This is a tenfold increase for design wins/ins and 14-fold increase for qualified leads and prospects since September 2012.

"Wi2Wi's industrial-class third generation GPS products have state-of-the art performance in a miniaturized footprint ideal for industrial, medical, government and infrastructure machine-to-machine (M2M) and portable device applications. The demand for our new GPS products is strong, particularly in North America, and we expect significant growth in our GPS business to continue," Chief Executive Officer Dr. Reza Ahy noted. He added, "Our relentless efforts in 2012 to re-build the Americas sales team, Americas sales representative network, and re-energize our distribution partners, Avnet and Mouser, are paying off. Together with Wi2Wi's third generation GPS products entering production in 2012, these efforts have resulted in the rapidly growing list of our GPS customers and prospects, particularly in North America. The demand for our new GPS products is strong and we expect significant growth in our GPS business to continue."

"Wi2Wi completed a major transition in 2012. However, the recently completed RTO on January 28th, 2013 has allowed the Company to build on the momentum of the marketing and sales programs, It is gratifying to see the excellent infrastructure and momentum Wi2Wi has been measurably building up during the challenging period of 2012 and now post-RTO in 2013, resulting in the significant traction for Wi2Wi's new GPS products," stated Chairman Dr. Hans Black.

Wi2Wi's average design and sales cycle is approximately 18 months with full production expected between late 2013 into 2014 and beyond. The Company anticipates the 22 design-wins and 16 design-ins will approximate up to 250,000 units of GPS shipments annually, and up to $3 million in annual sales, once fully ramped up.

ABI research's market analysis forecast that GPS IC shipments will reach two billion by 2016, as new high-volume verticals emerge.  Wi2Wi expects that a certain percentage of these, in particular for the non-consumer markets, will be in the form of modules and system-in-a-package (SiPs). Wi2Wi is well-positioned and focused on major vertical markets of Industrial, Medical, Government and Infrastructure.  Wi2Wi's current GPS customers include Fortune-500 and industry leaders in the infrastructure for oil and gas fields, networked street lighting infrastructure, femto-cell and mobile infrastructure, WiFi infrastructure, land-mobile radios for first Responders, asset tracking, fleet management, marine, and military communications.

Wi2Wi has over 260 customers and prospects for its third generation products, including GPS, WiFi, and WiFi-Bluetooth.
