Joining the Board of the NFC Forum 
 
 
 
 
Innovision Research & Technology plc is pleased to announce that it is joining 
the Board of the NFC Forum and is now a Sponsor member. 
 
 
Products with built-in Near Field Communication (NFC) technology will 
dramatically simplify the way consumer devices interact with one another and are 
a major focus for the Company and its advanced intellectual property. The NFC 
Forum was formed in 2004 as a global organisation to advance the use of this 
technology.  The NFC Forum by-laws allow 15 Sponsor-level members, who are 
reviewed by the Board of Directors to ensure applicants are global leaders and 
to maintain a balance among regions and sectors out of a total membership of 
around 150 companies. 
 
 
Formerly a Principal member, Innovision now joins fellow Sponsor members Nokia, 
Mastercard Worldwide, Microsoft, NXP Semiconductors, Visa Inc., Sony, Renesas 
Technology, Samsung Electronics, NTT DoCoMo, Inside Contactless, Panasonic, NEC 
and Hewlett-Packard. 
 
 
David Wollen, Chief Executive Officer, said: 
 
 
"We are both proud and excited to be joining the Board of a body which is made 
up of such prestigious members. This step is both a recognition of our hard work 
and technical contribution to this important emerging technology as well as an 
important milestone for the development of the company. Many of our customers 
and partners are members, or considering membership, and this move will allow us 
to increase our influence and support for the direction the industry takes."
