LANGHORNE, PA (June 5, 2008) – MTI, the pioneer of communication optimization to physicians, was named a

Hailed as “the business world’s own Oscars” (New York
Post, April 27, 2005), The American Business Awards
are the only national, all-encompassing awards program
honoring great performances in business.
“I am honored that MTI is receiving recognition for its
innovative business products,” said MTI President, CEO
and Founder, Bill Clapper. “The pharmaceutical industry
is experiencing an evolution in the way brand information
is delivered to the physician, and companies are expected
to be more judicious than ever when making marketing
investment decisions.”
"Our unique products, designed to optimize communication
and maximize revenue for pharmaceutical brands, have
enabled MTI to become the fastest growing provider of
marketing products focused on advancing the
brand/physician relationship,” added Clapper.
More than 2,600 entries from companies of all sizes and in
virtually every industry were submitted for consideration in
more than 40 categories, including Best Overall Company,
Best Executive, Best New Product or Service, Best Corporate
Social Responsibility Program, and new categories including
Best Management Team and Best Corporate Environmental Responsibility Program.
Stevie Award winners will be announced during the annual
gala on Thursday, June 12 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in
New York City. More than 600 executives from across the
U.S.A. are expected to attend. The ceremonies will be
broadcast on radio nationwide by the Business TalkRadio
Network and hosted by Liz Claman of FOX Business Network.
Members of the Awards' Board of Distinguished Judges &
Advisors and their staffs selected Stevie Award winners
from among Finalists during final judging the week of
May 19.
Finalists were chosen by business professionals
nationwide during preliminary judging in April through
early May.
“ABA entries grew more than 30% this year, so being
named a Finalist is more of an accomplishment than ever
before,” said Michael Gallagher, founder and
president of
The Stevie Awards. “It means that independent business
executives have agreed that the nominee is worthy of
national recognition. We congratulate all of the Finalists
