SEOUL, South Korea, March 14 -- iQ Power AG (OTCBB: IQPWF , Frankfurt WKN: A0DKTR) is pleased to announce how the collaboration with its Korean partner is making progress. During its current trip to Asia, iQ Power's management has confirmed a number of accomplishments. As agreed, the Korean partner has formally founded iQ Power Asia Inc. and registered it with the articles of incorporation that were stipulated. This new company has its corporate domicile in Seoul and maintains offices near the Kimpo Airport.

Plans call for iQ Power AG to take its share position in iQ Power Asia Inc. by increasing the company's current minimal capitalisation of 50 million Korean Wong (about 50,000 US Dollars) together with other partners. This capital increase will be conducted in accordance with Korean rules governing foreign investors and is subject to appropriately regulated steps and procedures.

The visit to Korea also provides the opportunity for iQ Power's management and its Korean partner to engage in negotiations with local government agencies regarding suitable locations for building a planned production facility. Initial talks were also held with potential suppliers, who hosted tours of their plants and gave iQ Power product samples for qualification testing in Germany.

During an exclusive gala event honoring iQ Power, management had the opportunity of presenting the high-ranking and distinguished guests with a look at iQ Power as a company and its goals. Some 60 prominent representatives from the world of politics, industry and public service attended the event.
