The brand FingerTec was born in 2000, with a visionary objective to bringing the then high-tech fingerprint technology normally used by government sector into a technology that is affordable and reachable by mass commercial market. Its first 5-year plan was dedicated to the R&D incubation, mainly targeted in improving the fingerprint matching algorithm, the product's robustness and user-friendliness; in short to provide fundamentals for the brand to soar high when it's launched. Within that 5 years, FingerTec had won 3 international awards as recognitions for its technology advancement. In 2005, FingerTec embarked on the next 5-year plan which focuses more on worldwide market expansion. The plan deploys new branding concepts and strategies, which include product D-I-Y, Internet support & marketing, while continuing efforts to improve the R&D. The result is stunning; elevated FingerTec as one of the most recognized biometric brands in the world in a short period of time. With all the above mentioned elements, and having three physical operation centers in the world, FingerTec manages to spread its wings fast and far, doubling its sales every year with its products presence in 100 countries within the past four years.
