LaserCard Corp. has received a follow-on purchase order to supply more than $1 million worth of optical memory cards to the Italian Government to be used as Foreign Resident ID Cards.

The purchase order was received from LaserCard’s Rome-based Authorized Value Added Reseller, Laser Memory Card, which supplies and supports Istituto Poligrafico e Zecca dello Stato, the government’s prime contractor on the project. LaserCard has previously supplied approximately $18 million worth of optical memory cards and secure encoders for both the Italian Citizen and Foreign Resident ID Card programs.
