[Dave Birch] As I’ve mentioned a few times on the blog (eg, here), there are many reasons for thinking that voice technology (both authentication and recognition) is particularly important to the world of digital identity. There are two main reasons for my enthusiasm: the first is that my technology roadmap has mobile at the centre and there are obvious synergies between voice technology and mobile phone technology, the second is that voice can deliver a biometric suited to multi-channel, local and remote environments. Therefore I’m very pleased to be speaking at this year’s Voice Biometrics conference in London on 19th and 20th November 2008, explaining how the technology fits into a broader picture of identity management for government and business, so that I can test some of our ideas in this space on other experts in the field.
