BOCA RATON, Fla.Oct. 4, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Strategic Solutions Network (SSN) will welcome an estimated 400 executives from leading retailers, banks, carriers and technology companies to attend its premier event October 17-18th, at the W Chicago City Center. The 3rd Mobile Contactless Payment Innovations Summit is part of the highly acclaimed Alternative Payment Systems Innovations (APSI) series of conferences featuring the top visionaries in the mobile space who will examine the disruptive nature, promises and challenges of the rapidly evolving mobile payments industry.
"We have developed the agenda to focus on the most advanced and value-added developments within mobile payments. This has resulted in over threefold audience growth since our Inaugural event last October," comments SSN CEO, Aron Barkan. "This illustrates that contactless payments is not just a trend, but will soon become a ubiquitous and universally adopted global solution."
Clearly, there is urgency for senior executives to incorporate a sophisticated mobile payments strategy into their overall business plan.

Additionally, a new study from Juniper Research has determined that the total value of mobile payments for digital and physical goods, money transfers and NFC (Near Field Communications) transactions will reach $670 billion by 2015, up 178% from the $240 billion estimated for 2011.
The two-day conference features best practice case studies, keynote presentations, panel discussion and networking sessions delivered by executives from leading companies such as Paypal, Google, Walgreens, Best Buy, Groupon, MasterCard, Bank of America, Nokia, The Home Depot, Polo Ralph Lauren, Jamba Juice, Discover Network, RadioShack, National Retail Federation, Barclaycard US, Citigroup, Verizon, National Restaurant Association, American Express and others.
