NewMarket Technology, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: NWMT) (OTCQB: NWMT) and
Savanna East Africa, Inc., (PINKSHEETS: NVAE) (OTCQB: NVAE) today
announced two acquisitions following the Greenfield Partnership
Program Trade Mission and Private Sector Disaster Risk Reduction
Pilot Program in Kenya this past October.
The United Nations International Strategy for Disaster Reduction
(www.unisdr.org) joined the Greenfield Program and the Small Equity
Initiative in Nairobi this past October on a Trade Mission intended
to stimulate small business investment in high growth potential
enterprises. The pilot program is intended to urge private sector
innovation and investment aimed at reducing disaster risk. To learn

Program, please visit: http://tinyurl.com/24o2jbb.
The October conference began with a welcome from the Kenya
Investment Authority (www.investmentkenya.com). During the Trade
Mission, team members conducted a series of educational seminars
for entrepreneurs including an introduction to capital markets and
early and development stage best practices in high growth markets.
Approximately 200 entrepreneurs attended the conference with
several entrepreneurs pre-qualified by the Kenya ICT Board
(www.ict.go.ke) presenting their business plans to the Trade
Mission team. Kenya ICT Board is focused on promoting Kenya as an
ICT destination while increasing the country's skilled labor pool
and socio-economic enrichment of Kenyan society. The trade mission
was hosted by Savanna East Africa, a Greenfield Partner company
focused on the growing economies of East Africa. The CEOs of China
Crescent Enterprises, Inc. (OTCBB: CCTR) and NewMarket Technology
and the incoming CEO of NuMobile, Inc. (OTCBB: NUBL) also joined
the trade mission delegation to develop opportunities in East
Africa for their respective companies. China Crescent and NuMobile
are also both participants in the Greenfield Partnership.
Yesterday, Savanna East Africa announced the first of three
acquisitions anticipated before year-end. Earlier this year,
Savanna launched a business plan expansion strategy directed at
acquiring and developing a portfolio of high growth potential
operations in Africa. The acquisition yesterday marks the first
acquisition after months of preparation. Management anticipates
rapidly executing two additional acquisitions. The three
acquisitions are expected to substantially contribute to the
Company's $10 million in revenue anticipated in 2011.
NuMobile also announced yesterday the acquisition of Kruze
Technologies, Ltd. in Nairobi, Kenya. This is the first of two
acquisitions planned to establish a foothold for NuMobile in the
rapidly growing Mobile Banking market in Africa.
