FedID 2021

FedID 2021 • Virtual Event Part I and II: 8/23-8/25 and 8/30-9/1 •
In-Person Event: 8/26

Planning for FedID 2021 has been the most difficult we have ever encountered as we not only have COVID-19 uncertainties but also unprecedented trickle-down financial issues within several of the government’s identity programs. Nonetheless, federal agencies have maintained focus on holding the event –the identity matters the nation is facing requires public-private collaboration, and FedID is the interagency’s primary means for enabling these needed conversations to take place.

FedID 2021 will be a predominantly virtual event, taking place August 23-25 and August 30-September 1. An additional in-person, limited attendance event that focuses on a key issue is also being considered for August 26th. The structure and plan we are creating will enable the participation of, and conversations between, government and non-governmental entities that need to take place while staying within this year’s atypical constraints. We also are planning to use FedID as a mechanism to gather community-wide insights in the development of a FedID “Learning Agenda” that will help guide policymakers as they prioritize future government identity efforts.
