Campus Identity Summit Review Part II

ColorID co-hosted a Campus Identity Summit at Harvard University on Tuesday December 9th 2014. The summit featured a content rich, interactive format with open discussions and insights from industry and institutional leaders. The exclusive one-day event was planned and presented specifically for those working in the Higher Education Campus Card Industry.

Danny Smith of ColorID stated, "We were delighted with the great turn out. Schools from all over the country traveled to Harvard and post-summit feedback we've received has been exceptional. Harvard University has been a great institutional partner of ColorID for many years and we appreciate the opportunity to collaborate in such a prestigious academic setting."

Topics that were covered in the Campus Identity Summit were; The Future of Contactless Cards, Biometrics in the Dining Hall, Mobile Credentials and Securing Access to your Workstation. The summit was enthusiastically received by all attendees, several of whom shared the following comments:

Susan Richelson from Harvard University: "It was beautifully presented and so well executed in every detail - very polished and informative. I made some great contacts today and as usual learned a great deal from David (and all of you!) and everyone sharing their best practices. You brought together a terrific group of diverse educational institutions, banking and NACAS today despite the lovely weather."

Steve Nichols of George Washington University: "The recent Campus Identity Summit hosted by ColorID and Harvard University was a wonderful event. By combining networking opportunities with peer academic institutions as well as providing informative presentations on emerging security trends, the event proved to be well worth our time. Thanks again to Danny and his team for organizing a great summit."

Stephanie Perez of University of Arizona added: "The Harvard Summit hosted by Color ID was an excellent learning experience in the smart card technology industry. Italso presented a great networking opportunity and a chance to share information with the pros."
