Top Mobile Services Executives Set to Explore the Role of NFC Technology at the 2014 NFC Solutions Summit

Executives from leading mobile, financial services and retail organizations will provide insights on the opportunities and issues facing mobile NFC technology and adoption during a full day of keynote presentations next month at the 2014 NFC Solutions Summit , the most anticipated NFC event of the year.

The 2014 NFC Solutions Summit, presented by the Smart Card Alliance in partnership with the NFC Forum and the NFC World Congress, will be held on June 3-4 at the Renaissance Arboretum Hotel in Austin, Texas.

"NFC can play a significant role in our mobile future by enabling fast, secure and convenient transactions for payments, access, identity, ticketing and marketing," said Randy Vanderhoof, executive director of the Smart Card Alliance. "Now that NFC has become standard in many mobile devices, we are bringing together thought leaders from across the ecosystem to look at the ways we can seize this important opportunity and more quickly put innovative NFC applications into the hands of the millions of consumers who have the technology."

The NFC Mobile Security Approaches and Business Applications Workshop, developed and presented by the Smart Card Alliance Educational Institute, will cover the fundamentals of NFC; security approaches using the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) secure element and HCE; the use of NFC mobile devices for payments, identity and access control and other applications; and the role of the various RF technologies supported by mobile phones for different applications.
