RESTON, Va., Oct. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — IDEMIA Public Security North America, the leading provider of convenient and trusted biometric-based solutions, has been selected by NIST National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence (NCCoE), a part of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), to take part in its Mobile Driver’s License (mDL) Project. IDEMIA is one of fifteen technology providers and industry experts selected by the NCCoE to work on the first use case of the Mobile Driver’s License (mDL) project, which has a focus on implementing mDLs in financial services to meet customer identification program requirements.

IDEMIA, and their fellow collaborators, will work with the NCCoE to accelerate the adoption of digital identity standards and best practices by producing reference architectures, representative workflows, and implementation guides to address real-world challenges faced by the adoption of mDL in the financial sector.

As a leader in the biometric and identity space, IDEMIA is uniquely positioned to contribute their knowledge and expertise to the project. IDEMIA has demonstrated its leadership in the digital credential market and has rolled out its next generation of mobile ID technology to New York, Arizona, Delaware, Iowa, and Mississippi, with more states to launch later this year. With a customer-first and privacy by design approach at the forefront of their technology, IDEMIA’s mobile ID app is designed to provide individuals with an easy and contactless way to verify their identity while protecting their privacy and ensuring security.

“Whether boarding a plane, creating a bank account, or making an online purchase, mobile driver’s licenses (mDLs) and other digital credentials have the potential to improve the way we conduct transactions, both in person and online. To help realize this potential, the NCCoE is collaborating with more than a dozen partners from across the mDL ecosystem to build out reference implementations and to accelerate the adoption of mDL standards and best practices,” said Bill Fisher, co-lead of the NIST mDL project, NIST National Cybersecurity Center of Excellence.

“With our commitment to expanding the use of mobile ID as a trusted, government-issued digital ID, we are thrilled to be part of this collaboration to develop digital identity standards and best practices surrounding mobile ID,” shared Donnie Scott, CEO of IDEMIA Public Security North America. “Our team is looking forward to contributing our expertise, insights, and resources and seeing what this unique collaboration among our fellow technology providers will bring to the future of mobile ID and the digital credential market.”

WUHU, China, Oct. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Expectations for travel are evolving: vehicles are no longer simply a means of reaching a destination, but travel companions that bring people closer to nature, serving as a “mobile third space.”

JETOUR continues to advance its “Travel+” strategy, integrating technological innovation, product development, and ecosystem building into real travel scenarios. From October 20 to 23, the 2026 JETOUR Global Technology Experience Day, themed “Future Travel Starts Now,” takes place across Wuhu, Anhui and Moganshan, Zhejiang, featuring technology experiences, on-road driving, outdoor living, and conservation activities.

Technological Innovation: Expanding the Possibilities of Travel

Backed by the Group’s expertise in AI, intelligent driving, smart cabins, and AiMOGA Robotics, JETOUR turns cutting-edge technology into experiences users can genuinely feel. The XWD Fully Automatic Intelligent 4WD, with 7+X one-touch modes, tackles mountain roads, gravel, and water crossings, while the GAIA All-Terrain Intelligent Architecture adapts to diverse terrain and C-DM hybrid technology balances performance with efficiency. On October 21, models with these technologies take on mountain-road test drives at Moganshan.

A Diverse Product Lineup: Enriching the Travel Experience

The G700 combines premium comfort with hardcore off-road capability, while the T1 and T2 suit both urban driving and light off-road adventures. Roof tents, onboard refrigerators, and other ecosystem equipment turn the vehicle into an all-round companion. JETOUR also hosts a camping market and a Starry Night Forum, bringing product features into real travel settings.

Ecosystem: Extending the Value of Travel

Travel is about understanding cultures and protecting nature as well as exploration. Participants visit Xiazhu Lake in Zhejiang for a crested ibis conservation initiative. Globally, JETOUR supports cheetah conservation in Africa, turtle conservation in Malaysia, harpy eagle conservation in Panama, and protection of Pakistan’s national animal, the markhor.

JETOUR has also partnered with Chile’s Colo-Colo, FIBA, and the Malaysia Marathon, broadening engagement with local culture, sport, and communities — giving “Travel+” an ever richer meaning.

JETOUR now joins travelers worldwide across city, mountain, and wetland, exploring new possibilities through the deeper integration of technology and travel.
