e-Smart® Technologies CEO Featured Speaker At Child Exploitation Summit

Washington DC, November 14, 2005 / PRNewswire-FirstCall/— e-Smart® Technologies, Inc., (Pink Sheets: ESMT) (“e-Smart®” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that Mary Grace, the Company’s President and CEO, will be a featured speaker at the “Children in Slavery” – The 21st “Century” Summit on November 14th at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C.

The “Century” Summit is sponsored by Robert L. Gallucci, Dean of the Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service and Susan F. Martin, Director of the Institute for the Study of International Migration, and will focus on the global commitment to eradicate all forms of child slavery. The Summit is designed to educate people about the global phenomenon that has become child slavery, reduce the number of victims enslaved world-wide and offer practical solutions to the deplorable epidemic. Ms. Grace will speak about the Company’s Biometric Verification Security System™ and the Super Smart Card and how the system’s many applications can provide solutions to combat and eradicate child slavery and exploitation.

The Summit features other leaders in government, law enforcement and business, including President of the UN General Assembly Jan Eliasson, U.S. Ambassador John R. Miller, Director of the State Department’s Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons, Claude Allen, White House Deomestic Policy Advisor, Charlie Black, Chairman, Children in Slavery Summit, Max Fratoddi, Co-Chair, Children in Slavery Summit and former Secretariat of the FBI’s Counter Drug Intelligence, Ernie Allen, President, CEO and Founder of the International Centre for Missing and Exploited Children, Paula Dobriansky, Under Secretary of State for Democracy & Global Affairs, Moises Naim, former World Bank Director and former Minister of Trade of Venezuela and Maria Velinkonja, former FBI agent; International Trafficking Law Enforcement.

“It is an honor,” said Mary Grace, “to be invited to participate in this worthy cause and provide solutions to this horrific problem.” “It seems unreal,” continued Ms. Grace, “that today, in the 21st Century, child slavery and exploitation exists in our country and countries around the world – that children, our most innocent and vulnerable citizens, are trafficked across borders and sold as slaves to be used in forced labor and, even worse, sold into child pornography and prostitution and other criminal activities. All of us must work together and do our part to bring an end to what can only be described as the worst kind of human rights violations. We can all agree that one war is a just one, the war against child slavery and exploitation. It is my hope that e-Smart®’s advanced system and technologies can serve as a powerful non-violent weapon to win this war.”
