One big recent achievement for Donnie Scott was the successful launch of the next generation of mobile ID technology in the state of New York. What made this launch extra special is the app’s design leveraging IDEMIA’s most advanced features to improve usability and accessibility for all residents.
“Together with the state of New York, we are demonstrating our collective commitment to expanding the use of mobile ID while implementing technologies that are convenient, secure and equally accessible to all citizens,” Scott said.
He said the app was even No. 1 in the travel category in the Apple App Store during the launch.
“I am proud to work with Donnie and am impressed with his passion for the technology, solutions and people at IDEMIA Public Security,” said Matt Cole, CEO, IDEMIA Public Security. “Donnie brings immense value to our organization and continues to lead by example to all our employees.”
