A bit about us:
Consult Hyperion is a globally recognised, independent consultancy, providing thought leadership and expertise in the areas of payments, mobility and identity. We help clients solve problems, understand opportunities and future proof their ideas. Everything we deliver operates at scale – millions of transactions, all over the world.
Contactless payments? We were there from the start. In fact, we helped the payment brands develop their specifications and testing programs, and it was our team who helped TfL (Transport for London) deliver contactless payments on the underground.
Mobile banking? We’ve got a team of ethical hackers who ensure that day in, day out, our client’s apps are secure and stay ahead of the curve.
Who said identity is the new money? They weren’t wrong. Think about your wallet today, most of the contents are related to identity and proving you are who you say you are. We help governments all over the world, understand the technical and social challenges related to identity.
