Gemplus Press Release October 31, 2000 Luxemburg
gemplus.com Gemplus, the world's number one provider of smart card based solutions for security, wireless and e-business applications has just received one of the greatest accolades of its young career! An important survey conducted by the magazine "ELECTRONIQUE INTERNATIONAL HEBDO" (IFOP survey - October 2000), addressing a broad sample of electronic engineers from 65 companies, ranked Gemplus the most popular Electronic and IT company, either French or foreign, operating in France.
Corporate strategy, dynamism, atmosphere in the workplace, creativity and career development potential were among the many selection criteria. The image of any company is a direct reflection of the way it perceived by its customers and partners. In this respect, the score achieved by Gemplus is tremendously encouraging for the future of the company and for all those who contribute to its success. But this distinction is, first and foremost, a result of the particular image that each person working at GEMPLUS has formed, fostered and communicated outside the firm, making us the N°1 company in France where electronic engineers people would like to work!
