Idag re-twitret IDEX noe rart:
"RT @AratekBio: National Bank of #kuwait has cooperated with #Mastercard to launch a new #payment solution.."

Dette er etter litt granskning gamle nyheter. Første gang MasterCard slapp denne nyheten var 14. Mai.

Jeg legger ved en artikkel som nevner noe veldig interesssant om IDEX, relatert til MasterCard nyheten 14. Mai, fra 17. Mai:

"In cooperation with Mastercard, the National Bank of Kuwait will lead the first biometric payment card trial in the GCC, an economic bloc that also includes Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, and Oman."

"This week, fingerprint biometrics specialist IDEX announced that a trial of its own biometric card technology was getting underway in the Middle East, offering few further details on the project; but given that Mastercard is the firm’s major payments partner, it could concern this new initiative with the National Bank of Kuwait."

16. Mai kommer IDEX med denne nyheten:
"... is proud to announce
that it's fingerprint sensors are being deployed in biometric cards used for a
new end customer trial, which is being run in the Middle East."

16. Juli melder IDEX:
"
"We are very pleased that Feitian is using our sensors in their dual interface
biometric cards, and that their feedback on the products is very positive. The
application is for banking on a major Chinese payment network", says Stan
Swearingen, CEO of IDEX. He continues: "IDEX is on track for commercialisation
of the sensor, which will be important in this rapidly growing market"

18. Juli meldes dette:
"Biometric Smart Card containing IDEX's contact-based fingerprint sensor has been certified by a global payment provider"

Dette har jeg i ettertid fått bekreftet fra IDEX IR at det var MasterCard som har sertifisert.

27. Juli meldes dette:
" ... is proud to announce
that it's fingerprint sensors are being deployed in biometric smart cards
launched by a bank in the Middle East"

Konklusjonen min, og det jeg vil frem til, ut ifra alt dette, er at IDEXs fingerprint sensorer snart kaprer hele verdenen.
Afrika, Feitian med "major chinese payment network", Jinco som er internasjonal og lokalisert i Taiwan, Midtøsten som meldt, men her tror jeg altså at National bank of Kuwait kommer med en bestilling snart.

Hvorfor IDEX retwitret denne "nyheten" idag vet jeg ikke, men jeg tror det er ganske tilfeldige nyheter. Likevel begynte jeg å lese og så helt klart en sammenheng mellom alle nyhetene fra 14. Mai og til idag!
Se på tidsperspektivet, alle aktørene, og hvor intensivt det har gått i løpet av Juli.
Her kommer det mer, MYE mer, det er jeg overbevist om!
