Kabira Technologies® to Present at CARDS 2008 in Sao Paolo, Brazil
Mobile Payment Challenges Explored by Senior Business Development Executive
San Mateo, Calif., — April 14, 2008 — Kabira Technologies Inc., a leader in extreme transaction processing software for global enterprises, announces inclusion, with partner Bull Latin America, in CARDS 2008 Conference in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Chris Clabaugh, vice president of business development, will present “Mobile Payments, Who Will Control the Customer?” / ”MOBILE-PAYMENT: QUEM TERÃ O CONTROLE DO CONSUMIDOR?” on April 16, 2008 at 15:00.Mr. Clabaugh’s presentation will focus on customer access, control, and monetization as well as the loss of direct control that financial institutions and banks are experiencing with customers who look to telecommunication providers for mobile payment / banking. Kabira’s current implementation in Russia will be featured — a project that includes over 40 million mobile payment subscribers - and the challenges and opportunities that have resulted. Lastly, Mr. Clabaugh will examine the critical issues institutions must be aware of when entering into the emerging industry of mobile payments.
“Mobile payments, and more generally the mobile commerce market segment, are experiencing explosive growth in demand and service offerings,” said Mr. Clabaugh. “Latin America, and Brazil in particular, are examples of geographic regions that have taken many of the first steps towards monetization of this movement. We believe that Kabira, together with our partner Bull Latin America, is well placed to provide the necessary transactional infrastructure, applications, and services that enable organizations in the region to capitalize on this rapidly growing demand.”
