EVENT OVERVIEW
The African biometrics market is forecasted to grow at an annual rate of 21%, with the global biometrics industry set to reach US$82 billion by 2027, according to the “Biometrics – Global Market Trajectory & Analytics 2020” report published by US-based research firm Global Industry Analysts.

In 2020, the government of Tanzania also made it compulsory for all SIM card customers in the country to register their SIM cards biometrically, makingmost of citizens now having a biometric ID.
The Biometrics Africa Summit shifts focus on key challenges of the biometric industry such as implementation and adoption of biometric tech for smart cities’ development, increase in identity theft, role of biometrics in a seamless digital era and regulatory challenges in private sector adoption and usage of biometrics. Delegates will experience a power-packed agenda consisting of presentations, panel discussions and keynotes from globally renowned speakers, panelists, and moderators.
