Paris, on 26-09-24 - Luminess, the ESN specializing in intelligent document processing and business process outsourcing (1 employees worldwide), announces today that it is investing in A3BC (Anything Anytime, Anywhere Biometric Connections). Founded in 2018, the company A3BC, a private player in French Tech, complements the State's digital initiatives to offer private companies and individuals a universal digital identity solution.
This partnership - both capital, technological and commercial - will allow, on the one hand, A3BC to accelerate its development. On the other hand, through this equity investment and the integration of a Digital Identity Wallet already in production, Luminess strengthens its position on this market and anticipates the expected development of new uses, driven by the regulation eIDAS V2 entered into force last May.
A key stake for Luminess…
With the evolution of technologies, digital identity plays an essential role in electronic transactions and access to government and private services. At a time when dematerialization is massive and the risks of identity theft or documentary fraud are constantly increasing, the need for identification is growing. In this sense, the digital identity wallet (e-wallet) - the use of which is expected to grow, driven by the eIDAS V2 regulation - is a solution to increase trust, security and ease of use of services.
By 2030, all key public services should be available online. 80% of citizens will then be able to use a digital identification method.
It is in this context that Luminess – the Mayenne company leader in digital data management and intelligent document processing – is today entering into a strategic partnership with the digital identity provider A3BCLuminess's entry into A3BC's capital is a tremendous opportunity to strengthen its positioning in the digital trust landscape. This supports A3BC's ambition to become one of the leaders in digital identity.
...which will accelerate the development of the TrustMe solution…
Thanks to this investment, A3BC is able to support the deployment of its TrustMe digital identity solution, which has just been integrated into the list of identity providers on FranceConnect, and to continue its substantial level certification process with ANSSI.
This partnership comes at a strategic moment in the development of A3BC. TrustMe should see a significant increase in its users following its integration into FranceConnect. We will thus be able to benefit from the industrial and technological expertise of the Luminess group to calmly absorb this increase in power, and also jointly develop the uses of TrustMe with private and public actors.
…to offer a complete digitalization of courses
Luminess, a recognized actor of theBusiness Process Outsourcing (BPO), has been supporting its clients for many years in the digitalization of their clients' onboarding and subscription processes (mutual insurance subscription, health insurance card renewal, opening bank accounts, hospital pre-admission, etc.). Combined with Luminess' advanced document processing and fraud detection technologies, the TrustMe Digital Identity Wallet solution developed by A3BC allows users to authenticate themselves and share, with their consent and in complete security, documents and/or electronic certificates of attributes (age, diploma, mutual insurance coverage, etc.).
Unique on the market, this solution already used in the temporary work sector will meet the expectations of Banks/Insurance/Mutuals in securing and smoothing their journey.
This investment in A3BC is perfectly in line with our development strategy in the digital identity market, which is today at the heart of trust and security issues for companies and individuals.
