IBSG International Announces Expansion Into East African Community

  IBSG International, Inc. (the "Company")
(OTCBB: IBIN) announced today that it will begin the expansion of its
BizWorld Pro commerce platform into the additional other four member
countries of the Eastern African Community ("EAC"). License fees for the
remaining members of the EAC are estimated to be approximately $2.8 million
per member over the next 4 years. Management believes, but cannot provide
assurances, that the Company will receive $5 million in first year license
fees in 2009.   This figure does not reflect possible subscriptions among
the estimated additional 4 million small-mid size businesses.

The Company is currently working with Kenya's Ministry of Trade and Industry on a contract that has already recorded over $2 million of revenues. The contract will continue to focus on support of the Small-Mid Size Enterprises (SMMEs) and facilitate trade among the EAC countries. Additionally the project will include creating greater opportunity for all EAC-based businesses through the platform's Bid Management Center, which will centralize and standardized procurement. The EAC has agreed to establish a free trade zone among the EAC members and to create a more unified commerce region in Africa, positioning itself as a substantial economic force on the African continent.

Dr. Michael Rivers, CEO of IBSG International, said, "This opportunity came through the former Kenyan Permanent Secretary for the Ministry and recently appointed Minister of Trade for the EAC, Mr. David Nalo. With a focus on trade, the EAC is one of the 3 major economic zones of Africa, South Africa where we have a project already and Western Africa where we project to announce a project. It also provides an opportunity for IBSGI to increase its SMMEs subscription base more than 10 fold. Moreover, the EAC has an ambitious but very realistic plan to unify much as European states have done in the European Union (EU). Kenya, Burundi, Uganda, Rwanda, and Tanzania are planning a monetary union in 2009 and a common parliament with a common president in 2010. They plan on setting up a single tourist visa system much like Europe's Schengen Group of countries, and they have had a common passport since 1999. This puts on the forefront of GAC properties. This Agreement gets us in on the ground floor for an opportunity that comes along very rarely."

Mr. David Nalo stated, "We are very pleased that we can accelerate our goals to quicken trade among the nations of the EAC with a proven platform that positions the SMMEs for international trade within and beyond the EAC. We are very proud to be able to offer the internet tools and support that we believe will enhance the continued growth of the SMME market. We hope to arrange for Dr. Rivers to speak at an upcoming event of the EAC and share some of his experience and expertise with us as we move forward."

Rivers concluded, "We are poised for an excellent year at IBSG International thanks in part to this new market, but I hasten to point out that we are projecting, but cannot provide assurances, to conclude additional contracts in Eastern Europe as well."
