WISeKey activates its HighTrusted platform for the Saudi Global Competitiveness Forum

Geneva, (ots)

Prestigious Event to use WISeKey's Social Networking Platform on the
Internet
The Global Competitiveness Forum (25-27 January
2009), the prestigious annual gathering organized by the Saudi
Arabian Government Investment Authority under the patronage of the
H.M. King Abdullah Ibn Abdul Azziz Al-Saud, will be using the High
Trusted Social Network Platform, an exclusive social network
developed by Geneva-based WISekey. Developed in partnership with
PublicisLive, the producer of the event, the high-level, digital
identity verification solution provides VIPs with a safe virtual
environment in order to network before, during and after the event.
HighTrusted is designed for exclusive networking environments as it
allows members to interact more effectively with people sharing their
profiles. In order to maintain the selection and exclusivity of the
social network, strict criteria of selection and admittance are used
by the GCF.
The GCF will gather 1,000 high-ranking corporate and political
leaders for three days of discussion. Each GCF 2009 participant will
be issued with wireless smartcard badges that are subsequently used
to verify their identity when entering the conference, attending
keynotes, and other sessions. Attendees can also use GCF ID
credentials, issued at registration, to follow ongoing discussions of
global competitiveness and economic issues on GCF's secure social
network platform powered by HighTrusted.
"The cooperation between WISekey and PublicisLive for the
promotion of the HighTrusted social network allows participants to
interact more effectively with people sharing their profiles. It will
be a big plus for events like the Global Competitiveness Forum", says
Anthony Gazagne, PublicisLive's Managing Director.
"HighTrusted technology is revolutionary as it leverages WISeKey"s
deep security know-how applied to this type of high level events",
said Carlos Moreira, CEO WISekey "The GCF is an annual meeting of top
business executives, international political leaders, selected
intellectuals, and academics who share an interest in global
competitiveness. Undoubtedly, Saudi Arabia will celebrate its new
ranking in terms of "ease to do business" -rated 1st in the Middle
East and in the Arab world- and have set a goal for the Kingdom to
position itself as one of the Top 10 most competitive countries by
2010", commented Amr Al-Dabbagh, Governor and Chairman of the Board
of Saudi Arabian General Investment Authority.
