Joseph Atick
Président Directeur Général
ID4Africa
Le Dr Joseph Atick est un défenseur reconnu de renommée mondiale et un expert en matière d'identité. Ayant été l'un des fondateurs de l'industrie de l'identité il y a près de 30 ans, il a dirigé plusieurs entreprises dans ce domaine et a développé certains des algorithmes fondamentaux qui sous-tendent aujourd'hui l'identité numérique sécurisée, y compris le premier algorithme de reconnaissance faciale commercialement viable. Il a pris sa retraite de l'industrie en 2010 pour se concentrer sur la promotion de l'identité pour le développement social et économique dans le monde. Dans cette mission, il s'est associé à la Banque mondiale et à d'autres agences des Nations Unies, et a été fortement impliqué dans le développement et les tests sur le terrain de la méthodologie et des outils analytiques qui allaient guider les activités ultérieures dans ce domaine, et conduire au lancement de l'initiative ID4D à la Banque mondiale. En 2014, le Dr Atick a co-fondé ID4Africa en tant que Mouvement panafricain pour promouvoir des transformations numériques responsables à travers l'identité numérique en Afrique. Il est un ardent défenseur de la vie privée, de la protection des données et des droits de l'homme et continue de conseiller les gouvernements et les organisations internationales sur l'utilisation de l'identité pour le bien public. Le Dr Atick est titulaire d'un doctorat en physique mathématique de l'Université de Stanford.
