LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwire - November 11, 2010) - Consorteum Holdings, Inc. (
The pilot program was recently doubled in size to include additional community members and is now accepting direct deposit of funds. Consorteum will continue to monitor the valuable data provided by the pilot for the launch of a nationwide initiative. Recently obtaining the capital required for further expansion, Consorteum anticipates having sufficient data for a scheduled multi-location rollout in early 2011.
Craig Fielding, CEO of Consorteum Holdings, Inc., commented, "After a considerable planning process we are now expanding this pilot to confirm that the data received thus far is indeed supportive of a national initiative. We have communicated with the other First Nations communities involved, introducing them to the MasterCard benefits program for rollout in 2011. We will be adding additional First Nations communities as they commit to being part of the adoption program."
