By bringing together the strength of these two international brands, this exclusive strategic alliance will provide the industry with an event that will deliver excellent content, speakers and delegates on a large international stage.

Isabelle Moeller, Chief Executive of the Biometrics Institute stated, "The Biometrics Institute is always looking at ways to work with our currently 146 members to help shape the future of the biometrics industry. Partnering with Elsevier and the well-recognised Biometrics show will allow the Institute to promote the responsible use of biometrics on an even larger stage, giving members more visibility, increased access to information and people.

Our aim with this event is to bring together not only the government agencies but also the vertical markets of aviation, healthcare, retail, and banking to this event to assist us with our mission of promoting the responsible use of biometrics", said Ms Moeller.
