Who could have missed the controversy surrounding legislation on UK Identity Cards? Not the Digital Identity Management Summit, where - among other things - we will be examining how they will affect your business. We also have Chris Parsons from the Global Billing Association providing a new, bonus presentation on how identity cards were implemented in Pakistan and what the results have been. This is a fascinating case with some entirely unexpected aspects which will help you understand the real-life results of ID card deployment.

The Digital Identity Management Summit is tailored to meet the needs of telecommunications business'. As an ever-more-essential element in business intelligence, fraud management, OSS, security, compliance, IT, CRM and marketing (among others) this is an essential area to master; and we have assembled experts from across Europe to help you do just that. Our speakers represent the Government, financial services, telecoms, IT, security, legal and consultancy sectors, and will help harness the blossoming opportunities.
