                         ("Networkers" or "the Group")

                                 Trading update


Networkers International, the AIM listed telecoms and technology recruitment
company, today updates the market on current trading.


HIGHLIGHTS


*   The Group remains in line to meet market expectations for the full year;

*   MSB, acquired in November 2006, continues to perform ahead of expectations:

*   Over 25% contractor growth in buoyant emerging markets;

*   Group's activities in the UK staffing market remain strong;

*   Four-year extension of Master Vendor Agreement with Unisys; and

*   Re-branding and trading name change to NetworkersMSB.


The Group continues to perform strongly and is in line to meet market
expectations for the full year whilst current trading conditions are encouraging
for 2008.

Trading conditions remain particularly buoyant in the emerging markets of
Africa, Asia and Latin America where the Group has benefited from contractor
growth of over 25% during the current calendar year.  These regions represent
approximately 20% of the Group's net fee income.

Meanwhile, Networkers' activities within the UK technology staffing market
remain strong, with revenues in line with internal budgets.  To date, the Group
has not been impacted by the recent negative developments in the financial
markets.

The Group is continuing to expand its customer base whilst cementing existing
relationships - as demonstrated by the recent renewal of the Master Vendor
Agreement with Unisys. This Agreement was originally signed in 2005 for two
years, and the extension for a further period of four years is a firm
endorsement and recognition of the Group's excellent service and delivery
capabilities. During the current year, the Unisys contract accounted for
approximately 6% of the Group's net fee income.

MSB, acquired by the Group during November 2006 and successfully integrated into
the group during 2007, continues to perform above expectations.

The Directors are also pleased to announce that, as of the 1 January 2008, the
principal brand name throughout the group will be NetworkersMSB.


Networkers' CEO, Spencer Manuel, commented;

"We are extremely pleased with the continued strong performance of the Group,
both in its UK operations and globally.  Our commitment to excellent service has
been recognised by Unisys and, as one of our most valued clients, we are
delighted that they have demonstrated their confidence in Networkers by
extending their contract for a further four year term. The re-branding of the
Group as NetworkersMSB represents the final stage of MSB's integration into the
Group.  NetworkersMSB looks forward to further growth and success in 2008."
