Asia Pacific's contactless smart card market has experienced several good years of strong growth. This briefing will cover key applications in the market contributing to the growth and some of the smaller applications in growing use. The recent economic turmoil will no doubt affect the strong growth previously estimated, but some applications with a strong infrastructure and uptake will be less affected.
This briefing will look at key applications, market trends and challenges faced by the Asia Pacific market during this time. We will also provide an update of related and upcoming research and provide an opportunity for a question and answer session with the analyst.
Highlights of this briefing include a focus on mass transit, government ID and contactless payment applications and leading countries in these industries.
Industry Analyst, Smart Cards Practice of Frost & Sullivan, Michelle Foong, observes, "Exciting trends and applications continue to drive growth in Asia Pacific's contactless smart card market and carry the market into 2009 despite the economic uncertainty."
