In My Opinion – Marc-Julian Siewert

In this occasional series of interviews, we ask leading figures in the world of ID and secure documents their opinions on some of the pressing concerns facing the industry today.

Having been in the post for just over a year, we felt it was time to ask Marc-Julian Siewert, CEO of Veridos, his opinions on one of the biggest questions facing our community: ‘how will physical co-exist with digital identity’.

Q: Hello Marc-Julian and thank you for taking the time to reach out to the readership of ID & Secure Document News™. There is little doubt that the technology trend for some time has been toward digital identities, but are there certain areas of identity that will always need a physical, government-issued document?
