THRED CEO TO CHAIR CHIEF INNOVATION SUMMIT ON WED 7 SEPT

Sydney, Australia - Thred Limited (ASX: THD) ("Thred" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that the Company's Chief Executive Officer, David Whitaker, has been invited to Chair the Chief Innovation Officer Summit at Sydney's Sheraton on the Park on Wednesday 7 September 2016.

This world-class networking opportunity follows quick on the heels of yesterday's successful demonstration of Thred's proposed integration with the Office 365 product suite at Microsoft's Channel Kick-Off partner conference in Hong Kong.

The Company views its involvement with the Chief Innovation Officer Summit as an opportunity to bring its potential to simplify enterprise workflow to the attention of a captive audience of key decision makers at dozens of organisations that are strong candidates to become partners or customers of Thred. Organisations attending and speaking at the summit include Mastercard, Telstra, Commonwealth Bank, Fujitsu, EA Games, NAB, Suncorp Bank and Shazam.

"It's a great honour to chair the Chief Innovation Summit at such an exciting time for Thred and for the social media industry," said Mr Whitaker.

"The Summit will bring together leaders from a range of industries to discuss the most important topics, opportunities and challenges in the field of innovation. I look forward to facilitating some lively discussion regarding how companies can stay ahead of their peers, and explaining how Thred's enterprise and consumer offerings can help to play a role in achieving that goal."

Representing Thred, Mr Whitaker will introduce speakers and facilitate all Q&A for Wednesday's session of the Summit. He will also make a keynote address explaining the Company's development of a unified social media platform - a brand-new way to centralise all of your social connections and simplify messaging with anyone.

Thred received a positive reception among more than 1,000 Microsoft partner delegates at Tuesday's Channel Kick-Off event. The Company looks forward to updating investors on further progress toward the launch of a Microsoft integrated service, expected in early 2017.
