At the recent VISIONFC sessions hosted by the NFC Forum, Flomio and panelists from Parks Associates, Red Solution Finland, and Strategy Analytics (moderated by NFC Bootcamp) shared their perspective on what the future holds for NFC in payment and beyond.
Presentation Abstracts:
Flomio - Cashless on the Catwalk
Fashion Label House of Holland teamed up with Visa, Flomio, and the makers of the NFC Ring to create a buying experience in 100 days that has taken fashion and retail by storm. What if you could skip the checkout line and purchase a ring right from the rack? Learn how this team of innovators is reimagining the retail journey by using proximity ID technology to enhance the customer experience and increase sales.
Panel - Vision to Reality: NFC Beyond Payment
People who have been involved with NFC almost cringe at the idea the Apple invented NFC with the introduction of Apple Pay, but the reality is that Apple Pay did serve a very important purpose of bringing NFC into general consciousness of consumers. Now we need to build on the growing success of NFC in payments and help support and develop other uses cases for NFC across all industry verticals. This panel discussion covered some of the more innovative uses of NFC now and in the future.
