Everyone is invited to attend an Open Meeting
The first meeting of the RAIN RFID Alliance in Asia will be in Seoul, South Korea on 26-27 October, 2015. Hanmi, a RAIN RFID Alliance member, will host this meeting which will also be adjacent to the Internet of Things (IoT) Korea Exhibition. Hanmi has numerous RAIN RFID technology solutions for the pharmaceutical industry.
RAIN members are invited for both days, with members-only meetings on October 26th and the morning of the 27th. Non-members of the Alliance are invited to join us for a RAIN Alliance Open Meeting for half a day on the afternoon of October 27th. The members-only meetings will include RAIN RFID presentations, discussions, collaboration with the multiple RAIN Alliance workgroups (Solutions, Smart Packaging, Developers and Marketing/Education), and a Hanmi factory tour.
