7. NFC success story in Japan
● July 2004: Launch by NTT DoCoMo In Europe: Vodafone & Orange ?
NB: No Operator in Europe is near NTT DoCoMo
● i-mode FeliCa: a technology from In Europe: Orange + Thomson ?
FeliCa Networks (Sony) Who will pay for the + $5 phone BOM ?
NB: >20% &  of Mobile BOM vs. 5%
● NTT DoCoMo invested more than 10B yens (73,6 millions euros) in the readers
subsidies. In Europe: Vodafone to pay for readers ?
● Apr. 05: 34% of Mitsui Sumitomo Card (Mitsui Sumitomo Bank) stakes hold by NTT
DoCoMo. In Europe: Orange to buy a stake in BNP ?
In 2006, SMBC was the #3 largest bank in Japan and the 8th largest bank in the world.
● Nov. 05: Launch of Mobile credit card platform "iD"
● 2005: Partnerships with retail, bank, transport, ...
● 2006: Equipment of the Japanese convinis (small convenience stores), restaurants,
taxis
● Jan. 2006: 10 millions of i-mode FeliCa sold.
● 2008: Coca Cola (C-mode2) 20 000 vending machines forecasted
