ARAB RFID 2008 Conference will bring together leading International RFID Practitioners, Vendors and End Users from a variety of industries in the Middle East, Europe and USA
Today, the business world is on the cusp of an information revolution, which is called Radio Frequency Identification, or RFID. An automatic identification technology, RFID has come a long way from the World War II days when it was used by the Allied forces to detect aircraft as friends or foes. Today, it is used in sectors as diverse as Logistics, Supply Chain, Retail, Manufacturing, Transport, Petrochemicals, Pharmaceuticals, Oil & Gas and Healthcare. RFID Techno! logy could usurp the ubiquitous bar code's quarter-century of quiet domination. Not only can these tags be read faster than Bar Codes, they also contain more information, so they can recall items more efficiently.
The 2-day Arab RFID 2008 conference is accompanied by 2 high-impact Master Classes by the RFID Technical Institute, USA, facilitated by "Top Notch" International RFID Consultants. The Pre-Conference Master Class is an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of RFID technology from industry experts, end users, and academicians who have years of hands on experience with this disruptive technology that is sweeping the globe. The Post-Conference is dedicated for RFID applications in Intermodal Transportation and Logistics. The event is supported by International RFID Business Association (RFIDba), GS1-EPCGlobal and the Supply Chain and Logistics Group (SCLG).
As many of you know, RFID technology will have a disruptive affect on the way we do business and live our lives in the next 10 to 20 years. This technology will cause a paradigm shift in all of us. Retailing behemoths such as Wal-Mart and Home Depot are investing heavily in Auto-ID's technology to improve supply-chain efficiency and track products from the warehouse to the consumer's doorstep.
"Arab RFID 2008 brings in world's leading International RFID Experts to Dubai" said Mr. Harry P. Pappas, Chairman and CEO, International RFID Business Association.
