New Orleans, LA, August 12, 2009 – iSeatz, the global provider of customized online travel and entertainment solutions, announced that it is celebrating its 10th anniversary and the position of No. 67 on the prestigious 2009 Inc. 500 list, Inc.'s annual ranking of the fastest growing privately-held companies in the U.S. iSeatz' decade of success is a direct result of its intense devotion to its clients, partners and employees, as well as its hometown of New Orleans, where the Company continues to make a measurable impact on its economic development and growth.

iSeatz was founded in 1999 as a source for online restaurant reservations.

For the second year in a row, iSeatz earned the elite position as the fastest growing privately-held company in Louisiana, among all companies honored on the Inc. 500. iSeatz secured its ranking of No. 67 on the 2009 Inc. 500 based on its extraordinary three-year growth rate of 1983.6 percent. Last year, the Company was named No. 494 on the list.

“What started out 10 years ago in the French Quarter as a fledgling dotcom has steadily grown into a global business that continues to exceed my expectations,” said Kenneth Purcell, CEO and Founder, iSeatz. “A world class team, proprietary technology and deep client relationships have enabled us to grow, revolutionize online booking, and most importantly, power devotion for our clients and in our community. As one of the founders of New Orleans' new entrepreneurial hub, The I.P., and as Louisiana's fastest growing company for the past two consecutive years, we continue to be a primary change agent, sparking our City's entrepreneurial revolution.”

“Over the past decade, our consistent accomplishments and acquisition of clients that are the global leaders in their respective market segments verify that being headquartered in New Orleans is not a barrier to becoming a leading technology company,” said Allen Darnell, COO, iSeatz.
