Fédération de l'Informatique du Québec salutes Mr. Girard's career and commitment to Quebec's information technology industry

Montreal, Quebec, June 8, 2006 - Nstein Technologies Inc., ("Nstein") (TSX-V: EIN), a leader in text mining and multilingual information access solutions, is pleased to announce that Mario Girard, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Nstein Technologies, has been named Quebec's Personality of the Year in Information Technology (IT) for 2005. This honour was awarded by the Fédération de l'Informatique du Québec (FiQ) during its annual OCTAS gala, which was held recently. The FiQ and its members took this opportunity to salute the career of Nstein's founder and the major achievements of the company, founded in 2000.

"I am proud of this recognition," said Mario Girard. "However, it is an honour that I would like to share with the entire Nstein team which, like many IT companies in Quebec, must step up its effort and savoir-faire in order to compete with international companies with greater financial resources. Companies in Quebec have the power to change things. Quebec needs to be a little more daring in order to take its place on the international market. This is what we are doing with Nstein, and I am proud to say that our text analytics and information access solutions are deployed in international companies that recognize the quality and innovation of technologies from Quebec such as our own. I am convinced that by having more confidence and by daring more, Quebec IT companies will fully participate in the creation of a new wealth and in Quebec's prosperity."

Every year, the FiQ chooses Quebec's Personality of the Year in Information Technology from the Personalities of the Month identified and announced every month by the FiQ. The Personality of the Year therefore joins the ranks of the IT industry's important contributors. For more information, visit http://www.fiq.qc.ca/FRANCAIS/temple/Personalite2005.html
