(OTC Pink Sheets: ESMT; "e-Smart®" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that Mary Grace, the Company’s President and CEO, will deliver the keynote address at the Annual Meeting of the Central Station Alarm Association (CSA) on October 24th in O’ahu, Hawaii.

Ms. Grace’s keynote address will focus on the unique, advanced applications of biometric technology made possible with the use of the Company’s Super Smart Card™ and the Biometric Verification Security System (BVS2)(™), which provides sure and secure instant identification – the key to security in the post 9-11 world.

To continue to have confidence in the safety and security in our day-to-day lives, it is imperative that these leaders in security be given the most advanced technology available.”
