User Group 2000

Card Tech's first User Group of the Millennium took place at the Four Seasons Hotel in Limassol, Cyprus from the 12th - 15th September 2000.

The theme focused on "New Frontiers" and the programme was designed to explore how new developments in chip, e-commerce and WAP technologies would impact the business and how CTL's clients would be able to benefit from industry and technological advances.

The event was a huge success and was attended by over 80 delegates representing 50 institutions using CTL technologies.
