Frank Olea accepting Kiosk Hall of Fame award

The Kiosk Industry Association announces that nominations are now being accepted for the Kiosk Hall of Fame.  We  expect to announce inductees in next 60 days.

As the manager of the Kiosk Industry Association has commented, “It’s important that, along with encouraging the regulatory guidelines and best practice design engineering, we recognise the extraordinary people who truly are the industry”.

Big thank you to Edward Crowley at URway Holdings for sponsoring the awards in 2014.  We were able to have nice awards and everybody liked them very much (including the one we shipped to Australia).
