2016 Council Member Recognition
Member-led and member-driven, the Smart Card Alliance industry councils make significant contributions to the smart card industry–publishing education and outreach material for different markets, responding to issues in the media, and developing industry positions on key government initiatives. This work could only be accomplished through the tremendous commitment of the many individuals who participate in and contribute to council projects. The results of the councils’ work are helping to drive smart card implementations in the U.S and providing authoritative educational material for both the U.S. and international smart card markets.
Each year, the Smart Card Alliance recognizes the top individual contributors in each of the industry councils and the council “honor roll”– the individuals who were leading contributors and participants in the council projects and activities. The 2016 Honor Roll was compiled based on council leadership, project leadership, project participation and meeting participation from July 2015 through June 2016.
The Smart Card Alliance thanks all of our Council members for their contributions and for their enthusiastic participation in projects that make a difference for our industry. The Smart Card Alliance also thanks the member-elected Council chairs, who devote their time and expertise to lead the Council activities.
