Press Release

AUSTRIACARD HOLDINGS AG, a leading provider of secure digital technology
solutions, is taking center stage in Greece through its subsidiary INFORM,
with a pivotal project that will transform the Public Health System. By
undertaking the digitization of its archives, INFORM is paving the way for a
new era in healthcare, prioritizing immediate and effective patient care.

A Landmark Collaboration

INFORM, in collaboration with other companies, has taken on the sectional
digitization of the archives of the Public Health System, a project being
implemented following a tender and funded by the Recovery Fund.

Goal: Improved Patient Care

At the heart of the project lies the digitization and electronic management
of the historical record of patient files in healthcare units across Greece.
The digitization of over 197 million pages and images, including medical
records, X-rays, and ECG/EEG films, will provide immediate and secure access
to critical medical information for authorized users.

Benefits for Patients and the Health System

The completion of the project will bring to the fore a range of benefits,
both for patients and the health system:

* Improved Care: Immediate access to medical data will lead to faster and
more efficient healthcare services, improving the quality of care for
patients.

* Reduced Costs: Avoiding duplicate tests and improved data management will
lead to resource savings and cost reductions for the health system.

* Modernization: Digitization will bring the Public Health System into the
digital age, improving its organization and efficiency.

Manolis Kontos, Group CEO of AUSTRIACARD HOLDINGS AG, said: "We are
extremely proud to be carrying out this landmark project that will transform
the Public Health System. Digitization will bring significant benefits to
patients, improving the quality and efficiency of care."

Dimitris Kontinos, Director of Digital Technologies at INFORM LYKOS SA
(member of AUSTRIACARD), added: "The digitization of the archives of the
Public Health System will lay the foundations for a patient-friendly digital
healthcare system, adapted to modern needs and requirements."
