Diary Alert: The Sixth Annual Digital ID Forum, London, October 25-26, 2005

From a founding father of online gaming to the world’s most informed experts in the biometric identity debate, the Sixth Annual Digital ID Forum will put academics together with futurists and world business leaders to spark what promises to be the liveliest debating arena for security focused IT and business professionals this year.

Can Virgiliu Stan, the man behind Romania’s National ID Card scheme, point the way to overcoming the social and political hurdles that stand in the way of successful national biometric deployment?

Will "Designing Virtual Worlds" author and award winning games developer Richard Bartle really convince us that protecting our virtual assets in online fantasy games will soon become as critical as protecting our physical assets in the real world?

And can Barry J Kefauver from the International Civil Aviation Organization clear the air for the security industry players currently keen to meet the fresh new standards for e-passports issued by his organisation this summer?
Created by Consult Hyperion and sponsored by ACI, Corestreet, EDS, RSA, Royal Mail and the Post Office, these are just some of the hot topics on the Digital ID Forum agenda.
