Mobile Connect: Delivering a Global Authentication Solution @ Mobile World Congress 2016
The key to Mobile Connect’s success is the willingness of industry players to collaborate to deliver an interoperable identity solution required for the modern age. Such a solution will offer digital service providers the opportunity to improve user experience and further reduce the risk of identity theft, whilst still growing loyalty, market share and delivering consumer insights.
In this service provider and operator focused seminar, we will bring together a group of selected industry experts and high level representatives to discuss:
- Mobile Connect – reaching scale with enabled users and what that means to the mobile and wider service provider industries
- What global mobile reach means commercially to identity management
- Showcasing live deployments and how these have been successfully launched to market
- The opportunities Mobile Connect affords the digital identity market in the future
This seminar will take place in GSMA Seminar Theatres 1 & 2
