As society has progressively moved towards increased digitalisation and users have increased requirements for remote access to services, there is a greater need for secure methodologies that allow companies to identify and transact with customers and other stakeholders remotely. The government is no exception to this change: employees and stakeholders increasingly expect to be able to interact remotely with the government, both easily and safely. Biometric technologies are becoming ubiquitous, especially in support of remote interactions: when implemented well, they can bring tremendous advantages to business, government and their stakeholders with a slicker user experience, improved trust and lower costs. Inevitably, new opportunities come with new challenges, including: - Identity theft: biometric databases are proliferating and criminals are highly motivated to acquire biometric credentials and use them to impersonate others, usually for fraudulent purposes. Biometric credentials are far more valuable to criminals because, unlike passwords, they can’t simply be changed if stolen. - Trust: as remote interactions become the norm, it’s essential that both parties can be highly confident of the other’s identity. A business, government or service provider will need to be confident that the person connecting to the service is both a real person and the right person. - Exclusion: for those who do not have the necessary technology or skills, or perhaps bias in the biometric system that discriminates against some demographics and characteristics (such as skin colour and ageing). - Compliance: unlike passwords, biometrics are tied to an individual’s characteristics and could be used to identify that individual. GDPR places biometrics in a special or sensitive category of personal data and demands much stronger safeguards around collection and safekeeping. Trust Stamp recognises the challenges being faced by users and the market, and has responded to these challenges by creating a solution which provides users with a secure, private, and accessible identity. Trust Stamp establishes trust in a connected world, delivering trusted identity systems at the heart of how organisations and individuals transact in the digital world and beyond. Trust Stamp creates a secure, private and accessible identity. Trust Stamp answers the ultimate question of ‘Who am I dealing with?’. Is the person accessing the systems at that point in time, a real person and the right person? Trust Stamp’s patented technology enables businesses and public sector services to create trust and to protect themselves and their users, while empowering individuals to retain ownership of their data and prevent fraudulent activity using their identity. Trust Stamp focuses on three main areas of identity: - Creating an identity / Identity proofing. Trust Stamp's radical innovations in biometrics and data protection empower people to access more with an identity that can be safely shared and stored. - Powering transactions that enfranchise all parties involved. When our identity technology is used to open a bank account or access a public service, both the individual and organisation achieve higher levels of protection and confidence in the security of their data and the integrity of their systems. Trust Stamp's solutions elevate all sides of an identity system. - Mitigating risk to identity data. Trust Stamp leads with a privacy and security focus. Our technology limits the potential for misuse of identity data and damage due to data loss by creating a secure and private identity with the Irreversibly Transformed Token (IT2).

Dream Delivery is a foodtech startup on a mission to make food delivery fair for restaurants and couriers through democratic ownership. Say goodbye to the abusive tech giants - now we take control! THE DEMOCRATIC SOLUTION TO FOOD DELIVERY Dream Delivery began with a wish to stop the exploitation that couriers and restaurants experience from the current takeaway platforms. At the moment, couriers get a low salary and are afforded very few rights. Meanwhile, restaurants are forced to hand over large chunks of their revenue without getting any control in return. We are rethinking takeaway from the buttom up by democratizing the ownership of food delivery, along with the profits and the control. A TRULY UNIQUE STARTUP Dream Delivery is a democratic enterprise, also known as a cooperative. Cooperatives have in common that they are owned by a broad group of people, whose needs are met by the company. Decisions are made democratically, and all owners have one vote each. Ordinary people deserve to have a greater say – and that extends to our workplaces! This is what Dream Delivery is all about. THE DREAM TEAM Dream Delivery's developer team consists of young and dedicated idealists skilled within business strategy, organizing, software development and design. Our offices are in the heart of Copenhagen, with the opportunity for remote work, as well. Do you have the democratic spirit and entrepreneurial mindset to help changing takeaway and tech for the better? Well, what are you waiting for - hit us up!
