Highlights from CTST The Americas 2008 Conference |
||
The Smart Card Alliance annual conference at CTST The Americas 2008 was a success! We had a great turnout, with Alliance members representing approximately one-third of the total attendance. “I personally am very pleased with how the event worked out,” said Randy Vanderhoof. The conference program, in particular, has received excellent reviews. With the new focus on the conference program and content, the event provided in-depth education for attendees in all of the end-user markets–payments and mobile, security and identity, healthcare and Latin America. Visit our photo album to see some highlights from this year’s conference.
