ID4Africa 2018 is the 4th annual meeting of the ID4Africa Movement, which is dedicated to the harmonization of identity schemes in Africa. Since its beginnings, ID4Africa has become the continent’s largest forum on digital identity. As such, Orange is joining the event for the first time to participate as speaker and moderator on three main topics: identification, authentication, and related identity services that can support African states. Come meet our team and learn how to develop identity services for the public and private sectors.

Why we will be at ID4Africa 2018

E-government services are a priority for Middle East & Africa citizens. Orange is in a strong position to support their implementation, through the creation of digital identities, and aims to develop a wide range of identity products and services throughout its MEA business presence—which covers 18 countries, and 121 million customers out of 442 million inhabitants.

As a matter of fact, Orange can support e-government services across 6 major streams through a Trusted Digital Identity enabling National Identity Programmes:

• Passports & e-ID cards
• Banking
• Online tax signatures
• Social program subsidies allocation & management
• Education
• Authentication via Mobile Connect

With the service called National ID, Orange aims to enable African states to implement digital national identities that can subsequently be used to deliver physical identity documents, to be complemented by digital services. To do so, Orange is working with local governments to define a framework for such digital identities.
