DAVID BIRCH, DIRECTOR OF INNOVATION AT CONSULT HYPERION
It’s always really hard to think about what’s coming next in any industry, but when it comes to identity the question is especially complex because there’s a whole new dimension just around the corner. We haven’t yet solved the problem of identity for citizens, employees and consumers and now we’re going to have to solve a much bigger problem: identity for things. In a connected world, everything has identity, everything develops reputation and everything takes part in relationships. ID for the Internet of Things (#IDIoT) is fascinating, scary and difficult: that’s why I’ll be exploring it in this presentation.
