KN Chief Joins Board of Data Capture Firm

Simon Kooyman, CEO of MR firm Knowledge Networks, has taken on an additional role on the Board of Electronic Data Capture (EDC) firm OmniComm Systems, Inc. He replaces Charles E. Leonard who has resigned.

Kooyman, who will chair the OmniComm Board's Audit Committee, was a member of the Board of Directors and Executive Management Team of Ipsos SA until mid 2005. Previous roles included President of VNU's Entertainment Group and President of Campina Melkunie's DMV Basic Ingredients Division, as well as a spell at Arthur Andersen. He has an MBA degree from the Catholic University of Louvain, Belgium.

Leonard has resigned his position on the Audit Committee as well as the Board, effective last Friday (July 21), having commenced both functions in mid-2005.

CEO and President Cornelis F. Wit says Kooyman's 'experience in guiding finance and operations for several public and private companies adds valuable knowledge and perspective to the Board. In addition we believe Simon brings a wealth of strategic experience and will be an excellent resource to the company in corporate governance matters.'

OmniComm, whose key EDC product TrialMaster is targeted at pharmaceutical, medical device and biotechnology companies as well as CROs, is online at www.omnicomm.com .
