Rapattoni Sets 2009 MLS Users Forum

SIMI VALLEY, Calif., September 11, 2008 – Rapattoni Corporation sets the date for the 2009 Rapattoni MLS Users Forum. This forum brings together MLS executives, senior MLS staff, and leadership from Rapattoni MLS customers, and will take place on March 10 through 12, 2009, in Simi Valley, California, where Rapattoni is headquartered.

"We are very excited to host this event," said Nick Rapattoni, President. "This is a great opportunity for our MLS customers to network together and learn from each other. The first part of the program will include a very important preview of Rapattoni's MLS technologies of the future."

Rapattoni has held annual MLS Users Group meetings at the mid-year NAR conventions in Washington, D.C. "These meetings have always been well attended, but do not provide time for our customers to truly interact," said Ralph Hoover, Chief Operations Officer.

The three-day event will consist of group breakout sessions where participants can express their ideas on how they would like to see their MLS systems evolve. Rapattoni staff will not be present in these sessions; however, there will be a general forum on the second day where each group will have an opportunity to present the results of their group's discussions with Rapattoni staff.

"As Product Manager, I am particularly excited by this opportunity," commented Madeleine Talbot. "Our customers often express the desire to know what features other MLSs are requesting. We feel this forum is a great opportunity for the MLSs to get together to provide guidance to Rapattoni MLS."

"Our agenda and choice of location was selected based on feedback from our customers," said Niki Rapattoni, Chief Administrative Officer. "We look forward to a successful and well-attended forum. We hope to make this event enjoyable as well as productive, with an evening reception, dinner, and tour at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum. Attendees will also have an opportunity to tour the Rapattoni facilities."
