Expand your industry knowledge

The Festival will inspire you to aim higher, design better and work together, to build an identity ecosystem for tomorrow. Our agenda will revolve around six key themes.

AI Agents

As AI agents become more autonomous and embedded across digital ecosystems, the boundaries of identity verification are rapidly evolving. How are AI agents transforming identity verification, and what are the ethical and regulatory implications?

Privacy

The more data points exist about users online, the greater the need to ensure personal information is shared only with informed consent. How do we design digital identity systems with privacy at the heart?

Experience

Today’s consumers expect instant access and seamless experiences. Identity verification has become a key part of the customer journey and solutions which are frictionless, yet secure, will drive satisfaction.

Inclusion

If digital identity systems are to work for everyone, a range of usability and accessibility needs have to be taken into account. How can organisations address exclusion at all stages of product development?

Interoperability

The benefits of an interoperable identity ecosystem are widely known. How can public and private sector players collaborate to develop standards and frameworks, break down siloes and build trust?

Innovation

The internet, the economy, and the world around us are rapidly evolving. As innovation accelerates and new regulations are introduced, the need for digital identity is clear. How can businesses prepare for the future?

Who will you meet?

A dedicated community of identity, security, and customer experience innovators from financial services, retail, healthcare, government, information technology and other key sectors.

So, really, together as a community, we come together to reach our goal, which is to protect our customers.”
