Opportunities and challenges for eGovernment with Rainer Hörbe, KPMG – Podcast Episode 14
Let's talk about digital identity with Rainer Hörbe, Senior Manager at KPMG Austria.
In episode 14, Oscar and Rainer discuss identity management and eGovernment, including views on challenges in real eGovernment projects - India's Aadhar, Austria's smart ID card and China's residents' card. They also talk about Kantara's eGovernment work group, of which Rainer is the chair, and the annual TIIME conference, which he organises.

In roles as a security and identity architect he contributed to projects like the Austrian eGovernment identity federation and European framework projects (epSOS, MAPPING). He is chair of the eGovernment WG at Kantara Initiative and contributor to standardisation activities in standards developing organisations like ISO SC27. He started the TIIME event – an annual identity conference - in 2013.
