20face
20face is a spin-off from the University of Twente and is a fast-growing scale-up that offers biometric recognition in a privacy-proof system. Biometric recognition is a key enabling technology that is certainly becoming mainstream. 20face has built an ecosystem of self enrollment, consent and personal data release management (PDRM) around the core technology of biometric recognition. 20face has added privacy by design to biometric recognition to remove a number of important dissatisfiers: user acceptance, business acceptance and privacy infringements.
