years of extensive experience with numerous
biometric projects like Privium at Schiphol
Airport, he founded the Biometric Expertise
Group in 2004 with the purpose of bringing together
the fragmented knowledge and experience in the
field of biometrics. His network of experts
cover all relevant areas of biometrics, from
strategic to operational, from legal to technical.
As an expert himself he is involved in several
projects and consortia, ranging from passports
and visa to large scale watch list applications
and physical access control. Today, Max Snijder
is involved in the key areas of the biometrics
business. On European level he is involved in
numerous workshops, committees and expert groups.
As independent consultant he is frequently being
hired to review, supervise and monitor projects
that involve biometrics. He works for several
European member states' governments as well
as for the European Commission. Max Snijder
is member of several high level bodies, like
the Consortium on Security and Technology of
the EastWest Institute, The Porvoo Group and
CEN Working Group on Integrated Border Management.
As CEO of the European Biometrics Forum he is
chairman of the International Biometrics Advisor
Council.
Having a broad knowledge about the market for
biometric technologies and applications he is
increasingly involved in the business aspects
of biometrics, meaning creating and assessing
business plans, providing strategic business
consultancy to industrial players and venture
capitalists and accompanying mergers and acquisitions.

Her main research activities are primarily in
the area of metadata and security on distributed
information systems. More specifically, access
control, authorization, digital rights management
(DRM) and semantic modeling. The application
of semantic information to the field of access
control resulted on the development of a new
access control scheme, the Semantic Access Control
Model (SAC) as her Ph.D. work. She is very involved
in several national and international research
projects and NoEs, and is member of the CEN/ISSS
Digital Rights Management Working Group, RETISTIC
