EEMA has found a new role

EEMA was founded in 1987 as the European Electronic Messaging Association, mirroring the now defunct EMA.  EEMA has continued with a loyal group of supporters and shifted focus with industry trends.   It's focus is now Electronic Identity, and we recently attended the two day European e-Identity Conference in The Hague.

EEMA is outsourcing its operations, which is working well.  This change has restored its finances to a sound footing.    There are regular meetings around Europe and special interest groups.

There was an attendance of almost 200, and a good selection of worthwhile talks.   Corporate membership is low cost, and worth considering for organizations and individuals interested in Electronic Identity.
