First Software Industry Medical Computer Scientist Appointed to

Position Underscores SeeBeyond's Leadership in Healthcare

SeeBeyond (Nasdaq:SBYN), provider of the world's first fully integrated platform for the development and deployment of composite applications, today announced the appointment of its Director of Healthcare for Central Europe, Dr. Gunter Steyer, as the new President of the German Association of Medical Scientists -- Bundesverband Medizinischer Informatiker (BVMI). With this January 2004 honorary appointment, Dr. Steyer becomes the first medical computer scientist from the software industry to become chairman of the association.

During his two-year term as President of the BVMI, Dr. Steyer plans to focus on the advancement of the Association's role in establishing a telematics infrastructure in the healthcare sector. This includes support of the "Electronic Health Card" project that is to be introduced in 2006, and is currently being developed by the project consortium entitled "bIT4health" (members include IBM, Fraunhofer Institute for Labour Economics and Organization (IAO), SAP, InterComponentWare AG and ORGA Card Systems). The focus of this consortium is to provide the definition of a non-proprietary telematics framework architecture and security infrastructure.

Additional BVMI priorities include efforts to improve the regulatory framework for the supply of medical information, as well as further expansion of the position and presence of the overall organization. In support of this effort, BVMI will leverage events and conventions such as the KIS Conference in Mannheim and Telemed 2004 to communicate its goals.

"The healthcare industry globally is undergoing a significant change. The focus is shifting from integrating data between departments within a hospital, to integrating patient data on a national scale. For this, a scalable, standards based system is critical. This is the future of 21st century integrated patient care and SeeBeyond's recent selection as the backbone for the U.K.'s National Health Service is a prime example," said David Bennett, Senior Vice President and General Manager of EMEA for SeeBeyond. "Supporting SeeBeyond's track record in driving technology standards for the healthcare industry, Gunter's recent appointment serves as yet another example of SeeBeyond's commitment to technology leadership and our influence on the enabling technologies powering today's healthcare organizations. We would like to congratulate Gunter on this honorary appointment."

Previously serving as the organization's Vice President for the past year, Dr. Steyer succeeds Professor Dieter Peter Pretschner as President of BVMI, and will complete his term in December 2006.
