One of our investee companies called United Education Ltd, HK and
Shanghai based is about to launch its flagship product called PhonePass SET
(pls visit www.phonepasschina.com), which is an automated spoken English
language benchmarking test utilizing recognition of spoken utterances with
analysis of the manner of speaking to determine language proficiency and
other speaker characteristics. PhonePass SET and the technology behind it
are developed by Ordinate Corporation (www.ordinate.com) in the US. Pls
note the technology is language independent and PhonePass SET for Spanish is
already developed followed shortly by Japanese, Korean and hopefully
Chinese!
The launch event is scheduled in the afternoon of Nov 14 at the Conrad
Hotel. We would be delighted if you could attend the event and would be
happy to invite any colleague of yours whom you think would also be
interested. Attached is our invitation.
Pls note CL3 of HKUST has been our sub-distributors for PhonePass SET
and some of their academic staffmembers may also attend. To have a
taste of what it may look like, please dial our server on 3471 4000 and key
in the Test ID of 9160 2407. The relevant test paper and
instruction is attached below.
B Rgds,
