Welcome to the newsletter of the European eID Observatory on ePractice.eu!
The European eID Observatory (EUReID) at ePractice.eu is a member service, open to electronic identity (eID) practitioners, decision makers and experts from public administration, academia and industry. This community aims to be the single point of reference at EU level with regard to electronic identification and authentication.
Our bi-monthly newsletter summarises the recent activity that relates to the eID world as it appears on the ePractice website. Remember that you should start planning for the eID workshop that the community will organise in Brussels, on 15 June 2011.
