Stockholm September 18, 2009

Stockholm, Sweden and New York, USA - BTS Group AB (publ),  BTS,  the
world's leading consulting and training company within the segment of
business simulations  and discovery  based  learning, has  signed  an
agreement with  Repsol, a  major integrated  oil and  gas player,  to
deliver a program focused on aligning the top executives and managers
with the company's strategic  plan. At least  200 top executives  and
more than  1,200  middle managers  are  targeted to  go  through  the
program worldwide, with BTS delivering more than 25 workshops  during
2009, and continuing the roll-out in 2010.
BTS was called  in to  this project  to align  the organization  with
Repsol's strategic  plan, recently  defined together  with a  leading
strategic consulting  firm, with  whom BTS  has been  cooperating  to
design the program launched in May.
"For Repsol,  this  program is  a  groundbreaking experience  in  the
training and development of  our professionals. It is  groundbreaking
because of the objectives it aims to achieve and the target group  it
is designed  for. However,  it is  the applied  learning  methodology
centered around a customized business simulation developed for Repsol
and based  on  the company's  strategic  model that  is  particularly
pioneering." says Esther Villar,  Training Director in the  Corporate
Division of HR Management in a comment and continues
"The  results  obtained  and  the  satisfaction  of  those  who  have
personally lived the  program experience are  clear evidence that  we
can  be  proud  of  the  work  done  and  rely  on  the   experience,
professionalism and high level of quality delivered by the team  from
the first class consultancy BTS.  I'm convinced that this  initiative
will help  us  to achieve  one  of the  key  success factors  of  any
organization: to unite, align and  commit the management team to  the
current and future challenges of the company."
"This engagement with one of the biggest Spanish companies is another
proof of the recognition BTS has been achieving in our markets, and
is key to further the trust around our brand and strengthen our
expansion into the Latin American market", says Dr. Philios Andreou,
Managing Director for BTS Iberia & Mexico. "We are proud that Repsol
has chosen us as a recognized trusted advisor to deliver a top
quality project for such an important project within a large and
complex organization".
