“GlobalPlatform is hugely authoritative within the smart card and smart device field,” comments Zhongkui Yuan, Software Manager at SHHIC. “With the association’s technology spanning multiple markets – including card and mobile payments – its specifications deliver a complete security management framework. It is therefore essential for our current and future product offering that we engage with the organization. We hope to align our products with the latest GlobalPlatform Specifications and draw on the association’s knowledge in order to enhance our product development.”
Kevin Gillick, Executive Director of GlobalPlatform, adds: “We are delighted to have SHHIC on board and to see continued membership growth in the region. In response to market demand from technology and application providers, GlobalPlatform will be hosting card specification training workshops this September in China to share our technical expertise in secure chip application management. We look forward to using this as an opportunity to further educate GlobalPlatform technology users in the area as well as engage with our existing members.”
