"Dear friends, valued partners
& associates
February 22nd 2006 will represent a new milestone for Asia RFID Hub with the launch of the
first RFID Summit in Thailand. This industry conference and training symposium has been
arranged in partnership with the Software Industry Promotion Agency of the Ministry of
Information and Communication Technology.
We intend to make this summit an annual event, allowing RFID players to showcase their
products and services, share their knowledge and reach out to Thailand's industry and
governmental organisations. We will also help set up other industry-based focus groups in
Thailand, concentrating on the development and best-practice uses of RFID applications in
these sectors.
At Asia RFID Hub, we are very proud to be associated with the Thailand RFID Summit 2006,
which has been developed in co-operation with our partner, the Singapore Manufacturers'
Association.
See you at the Summit."
