IRVINE, Calif., July 20, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- "In an age of enormous tech and industrial companies, investors would be wise to remember that many innovations come from small caps," stated SmallCap Sentinel analyst, D.R. Clark. "Smaller companies lack the bureaucratic shackles that larger, more mature companies have and can focus on the important niches. It's from this periphery 'under the radar of the big boys' that innovation is often incubated."
"A company like Ikona Gear International, Inc. (OTCBB:IKGI), a leader in innovative gearing systems technology which recently won the prestigious '2005 Technology Innovation Award' from Frost & Sullivan, is an example of a small cap making a name through innovation," added Clark.
