VeriChip Corporation · Delray Beach, FL United States ·(NASDAQ (GM): CHIP)

Who knew something the size of a grain of rice could protect so much? VeriChip knows it well. The company provides human-implantable radio frequency identification (RFID) microchips for use among parents, hospitals, and governments alike.
