What will travel look like in five\, ten or 20 years? How will artificial intelligence change our world and how can we ensure machines will work in synergy with humans? How can regulation\, policy and standards developments keep pace? \nDigital identity is a cornerstone for thriving economies and inclusion. Governments have been working on frameworks and policy for digital identity to ensure safe\, secure\, and convenient service delivery to citizens. Biometrics has been identified as a key enabler for digital identity management. People will adopt new solutions if the benefit is there\, but trust is equally important. \nWe are seeing an increase in cyber-attacks and data breaches. Uncovering risks of attacks on biometrics has been discussed by Biometrics Institute members for over a decade now and much has been done to make biometric systems more robust. \nWhatever we do with biometrics\, we have to ensure that we implement them responsibly\, ethically\, and effectively. Over the past 21 years\, our biometrics community has been working effortlessly to make that mission possible. \nThe Biometrics Institute is respected for its balanced discussions between very different stakeholders to find ways by which we can create a better and safer world through the use of biometrics. \nThe Congress attracts over 250 delegates including representatives from government\,  the user community such as retail\, banking and aviation as well as biometric suppliers and academics.  \nThe event will be held under Chatham House Rule and will be off-the-record (no media) to facilitate open dialogue between our members and stakeholders. \nSPEAKERS\n \nSome of the confirmed speakers so far: \n\n Brian Plastow\, Scottish Biometrics Commissioner\n David Birch\, Author\, Advisor and Commentator on Digital Financial Services\n Diane Sabatino\, Acting Executive Assistant Commissioner\, Office of Field Operations\, \nUS Department of Homeland Security\, US Customs and Border Protection (CBP)\n Kai Zenner\, Head of Office & Digital Policy Adviser\, Axel Voss\, MEP\, European Parliament\n\n Louise Maynard-Atem\, Deputy Director Data & Insights (Digital Identity)\, Government Digital Service\n Patrick Grother\, Biometric Standards and Testing Lead\, National Institute of Standards & Technology (NIST)\n\nSee Congress speakers list. \n\nIf you have any questions or want to know about speaking opportunities please email Garry. \nSPONSORS AND EXHIBITORS \nWith thanks to our platinum sponsor FaceTec\, our gold sponsors Entrust and Thales\, our silver sponsors IDEMIA and Inverid and our exhibitors iProov and X Infotech.  \n  \n\nFor information on sponsoring and exhibiting please email Shelley@biometricsinstitute.org. \nWHO SHOULD ATTEND? \n• Government in service delivery and border management\n• Police and law enforcement\n• Healthcare\n• Large corporates\n• Retail and commerce\n• Aviation and travel \n• Transport \nJob titles:\n• Decision-makers \n• Policy and governance\n• Business development\n• Digital transformation\n• Identity management\n• Technology solutions\, product development\n• Security\, cyber\, risk \nREGISTRATION FEES* \nMember users: GBP 740\nMember suppliers: GBP 1\,160 \nNon-member users: GBP 1\,420\nNon-member suppliers: GBP 2\,100 \nAcademic subscriber: GBP 250\nAcademic non-subscriber: GBP 400\nPlease note that the academic rate is for professionals – lecturers\, full-time researchers\, academics – for subscribers and non-subscribers. \nStudent: GBP 213\nProof of current full time student status must be provided before being eligible for the student rate.

The annual Congress\, back to an in-person event in London\, is the key biometrics gathering not to be missed. It provides an independent platform for off-the-record discussion among the institute’s global multi-stakeholder community. \nCongress 2022 themes: \n\n\nBiometric technology continues to develop at high-speed while the adoption of biometrics for all kinds of use cases constantly evolves. Standards are being worked on internationally but it seems regulation and legislation just cannot keep at pace. And confusion amongst the public and concern over biometrics increases. \nAs digital identity takes off in both a centralised and de-centralised modality\, questions arise about the necessary procedural responses required to mitigate against biometric ID theft\, fraud\, deep fakes and misrepresentation. \nThe Congress attracts over 250 delegates including representatives from government\,  the user community such as retail\, banking and aviation as well as biometric suppliers and academics.  \nThe event will be held under Chatham House Rule and will be off-the-record (no media) to facilitate open dialogue between our members and stakeholders. \nCONFIRMED SPEAKERS INCLUDE \nSee list of speakers \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n Marvin Sim\, Commissioner\, Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA)\, Singapore\n \n \n \n \n \n Joseph Jerome\, Policy Manager\, Meta Reality Labs\n \n \n \n \n \n Ophelia King\, Head of Digital Identity Market Development Team\, Department for Digital\, Culture\, Media and Sport (DCMS)\, UK\n \n \n \n \n \n Fraser Sampson\, Biometrics and Surveillance Camera Commissioner\, England and Wales \n \n \n \n \n \n Patrick Grother\, Biometric Standards and Testing Lead\, National Institute of Standards and Testing (NIST)\, USA\n \n \n \n \n \n Stephanie SchuckersDirectorCenter for Identification Technology Research (CITeR)\, USA\n \n \n\nSee list of speakers \nIf you would like to know about speaking opportunities\, please email Emilia. \nSPONSORS AND EXHIBITORS \nWe would like to thank our sponsors Accenture\, Entrust\, Facetec\, Leidos\, Thales\, Cognitec\, IDEMIA\, InnoValor and iProov and our exhibitors OVD Kinegram and X Infotech.

Some of us probably have experienced what international travel looks like raising questions about the proof of health status or how to keep queues to a minimum. \nWe require strong proofing behind a health pass and the use of biometrics to anchor identity. There has been no shortage of innovation (including digital solutions) but policy is having to play catch up at times. Systems must adopt an agile and flexible framework that can adapt to the rise and fall of the threat or risk. \nThis ID@Borders Conference will explore important topics such as: \n\n Current landscape\n Digital borders and seamless travel \n Cross-border travel and migration challenges \n Country updates from air\, land and sea borders \n Law enforcement\n\nCollaboration and dialogue are crucial to form a consensus and find a path forward.
