JP, recall Jonathan Bulkeley's comments from April 2009


http://www.msearchgroove.com/2009/04/27/podcast-scanbuy-ceo-jonathan-bulkeley-opens-up-to-drive-global-mobile-barcode-use-but-when-will-it-break-onto-the-mainstream/


NEUSTAR: "We’ll see what happens over the next few months. Obviously we are playing the most active role in the U.S. today as the only authorized code and the only authorized platform provider, so, we’re a major player in the space in the U.S. and we believe we’ll continue to be going forward.” (NeuStar has a strong focus on the U.S. market, thus Jonathan’s comments are limited to that geography.) Not satisfied, I put the question to him straight: What is Scanbuy’s position and will it participate in the pilot? “They [NeuStar] are positioning themselves as the clearing house which everything goes through. It’s not clear to us that they will play that role, so for us participating in the pilot at this point, we don’t know that it’s in our best interest to do that at this point [time]. We believe that if that is the final structure that the carriers decide is the best for the U.S. market, there will be a role for us to play. But it’s not clear. By no means is this the de facto structure for the U.S. market."


Best,
Sean
