The Automotive & Transportation Group at Frost & Sullivan (www.transportation.frost.com) is pleased to announce that it will be hosting an online analyst briefing presentation on Tuesday, 3 November, 2009 at 16:00 GMT, to analyse future trends in the ETC market, assess the global footprint of ETC systems, and highlight the competitive analysis and benchmarking exercise.

This briefing will benefit suppliers, system integrators and operators as well as anyone interested in key participants and emerging trends in the ETC industry.

“The recent economic downturn, coupled with the urgent call to combat climate change while improving road safety, has forced policy makers, suppliers and operators to think innovatively about transportation solutions. This, in turn, fueled the need to implement a viable EETS across Europe. ETC solutions have already sparked much interest across the Americas, Africa and APAC, where they show high growth potential,” observed Frost & Sullivan’s Research Associate from the Automotive & Transportation Group, Harish Baskar.
