ID:SMART is an annual in-person event that fosters networking and technical updates within the European community of electronic identities, wallets, smart cards and hardware security modules (HSMs). Previously known as Smartcard-Workshop, it has been the reference event for hands-on researchers, standardization group members, decision-makers and experts from companies and government administration since 1991.
The event provides a focused setting for in-depth technical exchange and discussion — bringing together perspectives from research, standardization and real-world deployment.
ID:SMART is a focused, on-site event designed for high-quality exchange and technical dialogue — enabling meaningful interaction and networking that is sometimes difficult to achieve in large-scale conference settings.
