Ajax, Ontario, CANADA - (January 10, 2012) - Environmental
Waste International Inc. (EWS) (TSXV: EWS) is pleased to
announce the appointment of Mr. Valdis Martinsons to the
position of Chief Operating Officer (COO). Mr. Martinsons
will oversee the completion of the TR900 Pilot Plant in Sault
Ste Marie and lead the engineering team that implements the
system design and advancements for the commercial model, the
TR1500. Mr. Martinsons will continue as a member of the EWS
Board of Directors, but will no longer be an independent
board member and thus will no longer serve on the
Board's Compensation Committee.
Mr. Martinsons is a professional engineer with a Master of
Applied Sciences engineering degree and a Master of Business
Administration degree. He was recently the Chief Operating
Officer of iTMethods, a leading provider of business agnostic
technology infrastructure operations for the small-medium
business market. He was previously Vice President and Chief
Information Officer of Virgin Mobile Canada, where he oversaw
the successful development and launch of their multiyear
infrastructure and foundational roadmap. Prior to that he was
Chief Information Officer of Research in Motion (RIM),
responsible for all Blackberry operations, Information
Technology services and RIM facilities worldwide. During his
tenure at RIM, he led the operational improvements that
brought Blackberry service to 99.9% availability while
handling a tenfold increase in subscribers and a twenty fold
increase in message handling.
EWS welcomes Mr. Martinsons in his new role and believes that
his appointment is a timely and significant step leading to
the commercial launch of the TR application.
EWS has also designed processors for the environmentally safe
sterilization and disposal of medical, biological, liquid and
