This was taken from RG's talk.
The data interoperability system as envisioned and designed is fully functional and provides a platform on which to expand future functionality, including the ability to securely move patients medical records to the point of care, which is especially critical for emergency room usage. This project was recently featured at Hewlett-Packard’s worldwide Healthcare Symposium held this past March in Phoenix. Additionally, Crossflo and Iameter have been the focus of several HP webinars with various healthcare IT customers, including hospital administrators.
As you may be aware, in the second half of last year Hewlett-Packard acquired EDS, a leading global IT services provider for $13.9 billion. Our relationship with HP and its acquisition of EDS represent one of Crossflo’s largest potential partnerships in global healthcare and public sector data sharing. We believe that the acquisition of Crossflo and Iameter by Patriot has helped to leverage the investment Crossflo has made in developing its collaboration with HP.
HP is introducing us to its largest partners both here and abroad, where our software and expertise represent a significant opportunity to address the global need for secure data sharing technology. In fact in March I had the opportunity to travel to Asia to meet with the leadership of both HP Asia-Pacific and HP Japan to discuss potential customer projects in the region. It was apparent to me that there was a strong desire to promote Crossflo’s technology in various healthcare and public safety applications. These initiatives could yield revenues to Crossflo beginning in early 2010. We believe that being accepted as the data sharing solution provider of choice for an expanding list of global partners establishes the long term foundation for Crossflo’s future revenue growth.
