ANOTHER AWARD FOR CARISS

MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA August 1, 2008 - PageUp People is pleased to announce that Karen Cariss, CEO, was last night named a winner of the Southern Region in the Ernst and Young 2008 Entrepreneur of the Year Awards.

The gala event, held at the Grand Hyatt in Melbourne, recognized all 18 Southern Regional finalists and announced the winners of each category; Product, Services, Technology and Emerging Industries and Young.

Cariss, nominated in the Young category, was recognized for her entrepreneurial spirit, innovation, personal integrity/influence, financial performance, strategic decision and national/global impact.

Karen was selected after a grueling selection process that saw five finalists remaining at the gala event.

Despite remaining modest about the award, Cariss' victory was greeted by rapturous applause by her many family and friends who attended the event.

"This is a great reward for the whole team. It is so important to acknowledge everyone who has helped build the company with us from day one to be a leading global provider of talent management solutions."

Cariss will now go on to compete for the national titles of Young Entrepreneur of the Year as well as Australian Entrepreneur of the Year at the National Award Ceremony in Sydney on 27 November 2008.

The Australian Entrepreneur of the Year will then participate in the 2009 World Entrepreneur of the Year, held in Monte Carlo in Monaco.
