\u201cIn terms of expertise and focus, Fovea provides great synergy to some of Coppernic\u2019s existing markets<\/i>,\u201d said Kevin Lecuivre, President of Coppernic<\/b>. \u201cHowever, they also open up new opportunities and applications in adjacent markets as well<\/i>.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Marc Piepers, Coppernic\u2019s Managing Director and CTO<\/b> added the following. \u201cThe Fovea portfolio offers an interesting number of opportunities. Products such as Regula\u2019s document readers and identity verification software are well known within our current Human Credential Management business. More and more companies are now verifying identity documents for visitors and temporary workers. Beyond that, the more specialized forensic equipment leads to completely new applications. There is a good fit and consistency in the market focus areas such as Law Enforcement, Border Control, Security Forces, KYC, and so on.<\/em>\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
