On December 21, Cvent, a market leader in events and hospitality, announced its partnership with ID.me, a secure digital identity network for testing, vaccine and health status verification required for hybrid and in-person events in the United States.
ID.me powers Cvent Health Check, a dynamic solution for health, vaccine, and testing status. It allows event planners to safely verify an attendee’s health status without any hassles. When combined with Cvent’s event marketing and management platform, it allows Cvent customers to implement additional health protocols at their events and run confidential health checks on their event attendees’ own mobile devices. Event hosts can set parameters to verify attendees’ proof of vaccination, health, and testing status by respecting individual privacy.
Patrick Smith, Chief Marketing Officer of Cvent, said, “We’re pleased to combine ID.me’s proven technology and strong commitment to user data privacy with our event marketing and management platform to enable a more customer- and safety-centered approach for in-person event experiences.”
Mark Lockwood, General Manager of Commercial Sector of ID.me, commented, “Anyone considering attending an in-person meeting, conference, or event during the pandemic wants to know that they will be in a safe environment, and in many cases, that means health checks and vaccine verification. Our partnership with Cvent enables meeting organizers and hosts to simplify health check and vaccination verification processes while meeting the highest levels of security and data privacy. As the industry works to return to normal, we believe our partnership will bring greater confidence to attendees, encourage higher in-person attendance, and reduce the stress and burden on event hosts. We could not be more thrilled to partner with Cvent.”
ID.me’s secure digital network is trusted by 10 federal agencies and more than 500 brands to verify user identity. ID.me Identity Gateway has a Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) Moderate Authority to Operate (ATO). It has more than 66 million individuals in its network as of December 2021.
