A comprehensive and international research report on the current and future potential of near field communication
All the indications are that consumers love using NFC and that the technology should now be set for rapid acceptance and explosive growth. But basic questions over the business case for NFC remain, there are concerns over whether NFC standard solutions are 'too much, too late', and there are sharp differences of opinion on how the market will develop.
Who will pay for NFC? Which business models will succeed? How secure is NFC? And what will it take to turn NFC from a promising concept into a profitable new business?
The NFC Report is an in-depth international research project led by Sarah Clark, editor of Near Field Communications World and an analyst with more than 20 years experience tracking developments in emerging banking, retail and mobile technologies.
The NFC Report will provide information on the market all around the world and across each of the business sectors that it impacts — from transport ticketing to customer loyalty, local government to advertising, retailing to healthcare and ID to education.
Every aspect of near field communication will be covered in detail — the business, the technology, the applications, the players, the alternatives and the future of the market. The NFC Report will identify what the latest technical developments are, how they work, what stage of development they are at, which suppliers are involved and what new products they have in the pipeline.
