As a sponsor of this year’s symposium, Rob Haslam, vice president of Government ID Solutions with HID Global will be addressing the delegates over lunch on Thursday, October 24. Mr. Haslam will be discussing the emerging trend toward citizen-centric electronic ID (eID) solutions. He will draw upon HID Global’s proven experience in helping governments around the world develop secure ID programs designed to meet the unique needs of citizens including the demand for greater security, convenience and time and cost efficiencies.
“We are working with governments around the world to design and implement eID and e-passport solutions that take into account the many needs of citizens, while helping to improve their daily lives,” said Mr. Haslam. “Not only are we providing today’s most advanced, secure ID technologies to protect identities and borders in the form of e-passports and national eIDs, but we are constantly innovating in the areas of smart card design, manufacturing, enrollment and issuance so as to provide citizens with greater personal security as well as cost and time efficiencies.”
