Zumbox CEO to Speak During World Postal Business Forum
COPENHAGEN, DENMARK – October 6, 2010 – Zumbox announced today that it will showcase the latest version of its Zumbox digital postal platform at Post-Expo 2010 in Copenhagen. In addition, the company’s CEO, John Payne, will speak during the conference at the World Postal Business Forum, organized in association with the Universal Postal Union, with a presentation entitled “Physical or digital postal mail – same address for delivery.”
In May of 2010, Zumbox announced the availability of its Zumbox Platform as a locally deployable, carrier grade, white label software solution for license by postal authorities and commercial entities worldwide. In August, Zumbox introduced the next major version of its Zumbox Platform, Zumbox 2.0, which includes High Volume Transactional Output APIs, the Zumbox Mobile Reader and other new capabilities that are now available under the Zumbox Platform licensing program.
Additionally, in recent months Zumbox has announced important agreements with DST Output, a leading provider of print and electronic output solutions, Crawford Technologies, a leader in print-stream transformation and document re-engineering software solutions, and GovDelivery, the leading provider of government-to-citizen communication solutions. These partnerships represent major milestones in further developing Zumbox’s digital postal system in the United States.
“Our focus on street address based digital mail systems enables a gradual migration by mailers and consumer recipients,” said John Payne, CEO of Zumbox. “Most businesses have 100% of the street addresses of their customers and less than 20% of their email addresses, many of which are bad. Digital postal mail directed by street address is a logical migration for postal agencies as a complement to their core, paper delivery offerings.”
As part of the World Postal Business Forum, organized in association with the Universal Postal Union, Mr. Payne will explore in more detail the importance of street addresses in digital postal services in a session titled “Physical or digital postal mail – same address for delivery” on Friday, October 8, 2010, followed by a panel discussion.
