BUDAPEST, HUNGARY 10/25/07 -- Power of the Dream Ventures (PDV), Hungary's premiere technology acquisition company, is pleased to announce the completion of the Company’s second private placement.

Pursuant to the agreements, conducted under Regulation S of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Company sold 104,000 shares of its common stocks at $2.50 per share for a total subscription receivable of $260,000. As part of the raise the Company also entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, pursuant to which it agreed that as soon as practicable from the Offering Termination Date, it would file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale of the shares of the Company's common stock that are issuable pursuant to this private placement.

"Fallowing the closing of our first private placement we received inquiries from a number of additional, potential investor. From the first round of funds we were able to acquire a number of significant technologies, which in turn allowed us to sell shares in this second placement at a much better valuation. After reviewing our current status, these new investors deemed it appropriate to purchase at the new price level. Needless to say we are thrilled. The fact we were able to raise funds in Hungary is a miracle in itself, but to do it in two rounds and at level completed is fantastic. I believe PDV is emerging a real force in Hungarian technology identification, acquisition and commercialization. This will be a long process fought with many obstacles, but we are certainly going in the right direction." commented Viktor Rozsnyay, President of the Company.

Funds raised in the offering will be used for technology acquisition and general corporate expenses.
