New Growth in the Untapped Markets in Asia

SINGAPORE--(Business Wire)--
Frost & Sullivan's Smart Card and Auto ID Practice in Asia Pacific
(http://www.smartcards.frost.com) will host an analyst briefing
webinar on new growth in the smart card markets in the Asia Pacific
region in 2008 on June 26th, at 11:00 hrs (GMT+08:00hrs) Singapore
time.

The untapped markets in Asia are providing a huge potential for
participants in the smart card value chain. The absence of a legacy
structure coupled with the success stories of the neighboring
countries will allow the untapped countries to provide vast growth to
the smart cards industry in Asia.

This briefing would look at the overview of the smart cards
activity as to where the smart cards industry is today with respect to
the untapped markets in Asia.

Highlights of the briefing will include a listing of the current
projects along with the road map of the same in the untapped market.
We will also provide an update of related and upcoming research and
provide an opportunity for a question and answer session with the
analyst.

This briefing will benefit all participants in the smart card
value chain such as card manufacturers, system integrators and venture
capitalists looking at new and fresh market initiatives. Through
analyzing the growth of the smart cards industry in APAC, industry
participants will be able to recognize areas for future growth in the
new markets.

Senior Research Analyst, Smart Cards and Auto ID, Frost &
Sullivan, Navin Rajendra says, "With the growth in the smart card
industry finally taking precedence in the Asian market, smart card
participants are now looking at fresh markets providing a high growth
rate within a shorter period of time. Untapped countries have the
advantage of providing a fresh base with minimal or no legacy systems.
This allows for the country to leap frog to the latest technologies."
