The good news is that the EBS pitch has been impressive to potential customers and partners (see attached presentation for a sample). We are pitching network services successfully (the VBN product is key), but it is clear that the Enron financial services skills are a major reason that customers are attracted to EBS in this space -- through Mathis Conner and others in the Tech Channels Group, EBS is gaining considerable skill in the value-added services arena (which is where a lot of the future revenue resides). Enron Net Works has been helpful to EBS' efforts in the exchange space. Also helpful are other EBS groups, such as those of Kevin Garland, Kevin Howard, and Larry Lawyer. As we become increasingly more visible in this space, we need to think about how we want to unfold the story publicly. I hope this update is useful.
