Ultimate Ears Amps-Up Inc. 500 Conference with Presentation on Legendary Earphones.

President Discusses Products, Company History in Entrepreneurialism Presentation

IRVINE, Calif. -- Mindy Harvey, president of Ultimate Ears, brought a little bit of rock-n-roll to this year's Inc. 500 Conference, held September 6 - 8 in Chicago.

Harvey was asked to participate in the conference's "Faces of Entrepreneurship" presentation and spoke about Ultimate Ears, her industry-leading company which produces in-ear monitors for professional musicians and impassioned audiophiles. Ultimate Ears was born over a decade ago when Alex Van Halen (founder of world-famous rock band Van Halen) was in need of on-stage ear monitors to hear his music the way it was meant to be heard.

"It was a great honor to speak at the Inc. 500 Conference alongside other key executives from the country's fastest growing companies," said Harvey. "Ultimate Ears is the cutting-edge, market leader for in-ear audio devices and it's exhilarating to share how a request from a legendary musician has grown into the thriving company of today."

The Inc. 500 Conference celebrates the remarkable achievements of men and women who have created America's best growth companies. Over 1,400 entrepreneurs attended the annual event to network and learn from others who have successfully launched businesses. Leaders and companies, including Bill Gates and Domino's Pizza, started as members of the Inc. 500. Ultimate Ears, featured in the June 2007 Inc. Magazine, was a natural fit to be represented at this year's conference; Harvey co-founded the company and the devices have since become the music industry market leader with clients including Van Halen, Aerosmith and The John Mayer Trio.

Ultimate Ears has an extensive line of products ranging from professional, custom-fit in-ear monitors starting at $550.00 to its newly-launched stylish and powerful line of consumer earphones starting at $79.99. Products are available at Ultimate Ears (www.ultimateears.com or 800-589-6531).
