GBP50,000 Prize Fund for the Best New Internet-Based Business Ideas

READING, England, October 27, 2010 - The search commences today, to find Britain's new young digital
entrepreneur, with the launch of the DediPower Digital Awards 2011.

DediPower, one of the UK's top 50 fastest growing tech companies* and
leading managed and cloud hosting specialists, is looking to reward and
develop Britain's best young digital talent, with a prize fund worth over
GBP50,000.

Craig Martin, CEO, DediPower, says: "We are seeking to help develop top
young digital talent in the UK and reward their innovative spirit. This is
the second year of the awards, but this year there will be two age categories
of winners. The 2010 winner, Stuart Varrall of Fluid Pixel, has gone on to be
highly successful and has moved into new expanded premises in Newcastle Upon
Tyne
.

"If you are young and have a great idea, it is often extremely difficult
to know where to turn to get your idea off the ground, or how to get the
right advice. Part of the rationale for the Awards is to help young would be
entrepreneurs with a combination of funding and business mentoring support,"
commented Martin.

"We are delighted to have the full backing of e-skills UK and the support
of The Sunday Telegraph and Berkshire Media Group to help promote the Awards
and to attract entrants from across Britain."

The DediPower Digital Awards has a prize fund of over GBP50,000 including
a cash investment, business mentoring and a year's free Internet hosting for
the winners.

2010 Winner, Stuart Varrall of Fluid Pixel Ltd, says:"The DediPower award
gave me an amazing boost. The publicity alone was worth its weight in gold.
Even more valuable is the mentoring and critical business advice I have
received from DediPower throughout this year, which has really pushed my
mobile phone applications business along at a sustained pace."

The DediPower Digital Awards are open for entries from today, and close
on 28th February 2011. The DediPower Young Digital Entrepreneur Award is for
people aged between 17 and 24 years. The DediPower Digital Innovation Award
