Doug OGorden

Doug OGorden, who is affectionately known as Dr. BIPA, brings to the table a remarkable quarter-century of experience spanning the realms of physical and digital technology media.  In recent years, he has committed himself to mastering the intricate landscape of identity and access management (IAM), all while offering insightful predictions about the industry’s future direction – a transformation he aptly dubs our journey from a “Flintstones 2 Jetsons” society.

His influence ripples across the landscape, with active participation and engaging presentations on the topics of identity & biometrics in print, online and in-person at prestigious trade shows held across the world, encompassing domains like air travel, finance, healthcare, sports and entertainment, as well as both physical and cyber security markets.

In addition to his expansive knowledge and involvement, Doug holds the esteemed positions of Co-owner and Director of Digital Media & Events at two noteworthy platforms, www.BIPAbuzz.com and www.AID2entry.com  The former champions the continuing discussion on the legal and compliance issues supporting the safe and ethical use of our identity for both physical and online identity access permissions, while the latter showcases “The Art of the Possible” identity and biometrics technology solutions that are tailored for OUR mobile, touchless, and frictionless future.

Hailing from the heart of Illinois, the birthplace of the 2008 Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA), Doug has become intimately acquainted with the political, legal, privacy and technology luminaries that shape this captivating and contentious law.  Moreover, he proudly wears the hat of Founder of “BIPA Turns XXX…What’s Next?” – a LIVE EVENT held Annually in the vibrant city of Chicago, IL
