Fortress International Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: FIGI) (NASDAQ: FIGIU) (NASDAQ: FIGIW), a leading provider of Consulting and Engineering, Construction Management and 24/7/365 Site Services for mission-critical facilities, today announced that Bill Pirrone, Senior Vice President of Strategy Development for Fortress, will speak at the Telx-sponsored CEO Roundtable on April 23rd. Telx, a leading provider of network-neutral co-location and interconnection services, will host the event at its new co-location facility located at 100 Delawanna Avenue in Clifton, New Jersey, just outside the New York metro area. The event will be attended by CIOs, CFOs and CEOs who seek to learn more about the offerings of the facility and the technology and process behind the design and build-out of the space.

Mr. Pirrone led the efforts for Fortress International Group (formerly Rubicon Professional Services), who served as the consultant and construction manager for the Telx facility and performed the design, oversight and build-out of the 10,000 square foot raised floor space. Bill will address attendees gathered for the facility's ribbon-cutting ceremony on how Fortress worked with Telx to first understand their business model and capital and performance expectations and then turn them into an executable plan that delivered on those expectations in terms of cost, schedule and resiliency.

Michael Terlizzi, Executive Vice President of Operations for Telx stated: "Fortress is uniquely qualified to speak to an audience seeking answers to their critical facility lifecycle questions. They are not only interested in the technology that goes into a state-of-the-art facility such as this, but also in understanding the process behind how you go from stated goals, straight through to the end product, while achieving those goals. Bill's in-depth knowledge and many years of experience, particularly in the data center co-location market sector, offers them valuable insight into strategic planning and coordination required to achieve maximum levels of uptime and efficiency."

The new facility offers Telx customers the ability to connect to more than 400 firms, including carriers, business exchanges, and enterprises, all with only a single point of connection between the networks. As a result, this network-neutral facility provides access to the largest number of carriers and businesses with some of the lowest latency rates in the region. In addition, the new Clifton facility offers diverse connections to three other Telx locations: two in New York City; one in Weehawken, NJ.
