09:00 – 12:30 Sustainability – Reducing the Environmental Impact of Cash
Wherever you are on your journey to sustainability, this session aims to give food for thought about new opportunities to do things differently.
09:00 – 12:30 Identity Seminar – Digitizing Identity: Benefits and Risks Highlighted by the Current Regulatory Landscape
In this interactive workshop we will provide the context of international remote identity verification and will compare and contrast different global approaches and how they impact user experience, fraud detection and document design.
This session is designed to bring together specialists from different fields to brainstorm problems and present their proposed solutions. All of the attendees will focus on distinct problems and highlight their insights for the benefit of all the participants.
13:30 – 17:00 Security Printing Seminar – Design and Production of Security Documents through Digital Print
This workshop will provide an introduction to high-end digital print equipment and their use for security documents. It will offer information, guidance and a critical overview on the specification and design of documents incorporating digital print, as well as practical insights in to setting up and using the systems. The workshop will be invaluable to security document issuers, designers and printers.
Digital printing technologies are finding an ever-increasing role in the production of secure documents, particularly in areas that require low setup costs and the individualisation of documents with unique or sequential features. This is seeing the development of digitally-specific security print design features. What are they and how do you incorporate them in to your security document?
Before adopting digital printing for your secured documents you need to consider not just the positives but also the negatives, which include the lower resolution and the limited range of inks available compared to traditional printing. It’s also true that this technology is widely available – which, naturally, doesn’t lend itself well to security printing.
This workshop will examine the pros and cons of using sophisticated digital printers for secured documents, with a review of digital security inks, feature design software, printing hardware and real-life applications. It will also take a big-picture look at the opportunities and threats arising from these printer developments.
The workshop will then feature presentations from equipment and software suppliers and security printers already offering digitally printed documents, to ensure that you get clear, detailed and practical information on the possibilities and options of using high-end digital systems for security documents.
All those registering for this seminar will receive a complimentary printed copy of Reconnaissance’s new publication Printing Beyond Colour: Commercial Innovations for Security Print, worth £200. This 60-page review offers informative technical analyses of latest generation inks and digital printing techniques and how these could be adapted and applied to the security world.
13:30 – 17:00 ITSA Seminar – Best Practices for Tracking and Tracing Excise Products
Hosted by the International Tax Stamp Association (ITSA), this seminar will explore the growing widespread use of traceability systems on excise products and how their integration with secure and independent tax stamp programmes have led to increased tax revenues and the countering of illicit trade in various countries worldwide.
The seminar is open to revenue and customs authorities, concerned NGOs and academics, along with ITSA members.
