Digital ID Systems In Africa

An opinion piece by Integrated Biometrics VP David Gerulski titled, “Africa benefits from biometrics as an identifier” was featured in the industry publication Biometric Update. In the piece, Gerulski examines progress made since the push for biometrics in Africa accelerated after the United Nations (UN) adopted its 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Integrated Biometrics Fingerprint Scanners Perfect For African Marketplace

Surging economic and population growth across Africa is driving increased demand for mobile biometrics for identity management enrollment and verification by government agencies, international organizations, law enforcement and commercial entities. Integrated Biometrics products such as the Watson Mini, Kojak, and Columbo are building a path to the future.
