Skybridge Development Corporation Exhibiting at the Toronto Resource Investment Conference, October 4 & 5, 2008

  SKYBRIDGE DEVELOPMENT CORP (TSX-V: SBD)
will be in attendance at the Toronto Resource Investment Conference and
invites shareholders and interested investors to join us at Booth #415 on
Saturday and Sunday, October 4 & 5, 2008.

Gordon Yule, P.Geo., Executive Vice-President will be on hand to discuss the company's Blue Caribou Project, an exciting new high grade copper discovery in Canada's Nunavut Territory, gateway to the Northwest Passage on the Arctic Ocean.

The Toronto Resource Investment Conference is produced by Cambridge House International Inc., and will be held at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre, South Building 222 Bremner Blvd, Toronto, ON, Canada. Exhibit Hours will be from 10:00 a.m. - 6 p.m. on Saturday the 4th & 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. on Sunday the 5th.

Skybridge management and Board of Directors are experienced and successful Arctic explorers and developers and believe that a stable source of supply from tidewater-accessible world-class mineral deposits and an increasingly favourable political climate around asserting Canada's sovereignty in the Arctic, will ultimately establish Nunavut and the Northwest Territories as Canada's next great mining and oil and gas district. The company is well supported and actively considering additional acquisitions in the Arctic and elsewhere as a catalyst for growth.
