Sesames Awards - 2010: XIRING shortlisted for a SESAMES Innovation Award in the Transportation Applications category.

Each year, as part of the ?Cartes' trade show, the SESAMES Awards are given to the best new technological innovations and the best applications in the fields of smart cards, identification, digital security, secure transactions and contactless.

Porteo is a personal and portable smart card reader designed as a cardholder. It is adapted to both contact and contactless cards and dedicated to both nomadic and home uses. Its simplicity and ergonomics make it the perfect solution for mass transit users and operators.

The Sesame Awards will be presented during the gala evening on 5 December 2010, on the eve of the opening of the CARTES 2010 trade show.

?e-ID SCHEMES: the infrastructure is key to achieving success' conference.

Today, numerous e-id programs are either coming to fruition or on the horizon. However, when building these programs, a number of questions need to be answered. For example, what is the main objective (offering new services to citizens, modernizing government services or strengthening domestic security)? How should I go about planning the project (what infrastructure do I need)? What about budget and schedule?

XIRING, a specialist in infrastructure solutions for e-ID schemes, is offering half a day of conferences around this theme in the official congress.

The speakers will be international experts (from Belgium, Brazil, Spain, Israel) who will provide insights based on their national projects and achievements.

The ?e-ID schemes' conference will take place on Wednesday December 8th from 2pm to 5:30 pm at the Paris-Nord Exhibition Centre in Villepinte (France). For more information, please contact pressoffice@xiring.com
