NewMarket Technology, Inc. Announces the Small Equity Initiative

DALLAS, TX--(Marketwire - November 27, 2009) - NewMarket Technology, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: NWMT) today announced the launch of Small Equity Initiative (SEI). Small Equity Initiative is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to improving the opportunity for self-directed retail investors to profit from over-the-counter investments and for entrepreneurs to gain better access to capital for their business plans. Co-founded by Philip Verges, NewMarket CEO and Chairman, and other small public company managers and investors, SEI plans to build a community for small business investors and entrepreneurs aimed at improving the collective understanding of how the over-the-counter market really works today and how it can be improved in the future. SEI views conventional market wisdom regarding the over-the-counter markets as flawed, but does believe over-the-counter markets can deliver compelling returns on investment if approached correctly. SEI plans to utilize a variety of mediums to facilitate the expansion of a community for investors and entrepreneurs. More information on the Small Equity Initiative is available by contacting Small Equity Initiative at info@smallequity.com.
