InfoMart, a globally recognized background screening and identity verification company, announced that Marco Piovesan, CEO of InfoMart, has been recognized as a 2019 Top 100 Influencer in Identity by One World Identity (OWI). This exclusive list recognizes influencers and leaders from across the globe, showcasing the "names to know" in the identity space--from entrepreneurs to business leaders to security gurus, privacy advocates, and more. OWI's Top 100 represents pioneers, innovators, and visionaries who are advancing inclusion, improving products and services, keeping personal data safe, and protecting privacy.

Piovesan has over 20 years of experience in global identity, credit, and screening programs, serving diverse corporations and governments worldwide in countries including Mozambique, China, and the United States, among others. He is also an active regulatory data privacy consultant for the International Monetary Fund.

Piovesan is a leading advocate for a global approach to identity, credit, and background screening that resolves economic and societal challenges, including obstacles to basic identity verification that lead to the denial of financial access and employment opportunities. Piovesan has produced a documentary about the daily challenges of life in poverty-stricken, informal South African settlements and has been recognized by the President of South Africa in a State of the Nation Address.

"It's an incredible honor to receive this recognition from such a prestigious organization," said Piovesan. "I'm enthusiastic about constructing a global trust economy using data intelligence, and InfoMart is dedicated to bringing solutions centered on seamless onboarding and federated identities while ensuring risk mitigation and compliance. We care about helping people hire and get hired on a global scale to advance everyone's career and financial access."

He has been involved with some of the most successful global data intelligence companies in the world, including ChoicePoint (now LexisNexis), Bridger Insight (now LexisNexis), Global Data Company (now Trulioo), CBCInnovis, VIX Verify (now GBG Group), Pangeodata, and InfoMart. He is also an investor in several startups, which focus on objectives that include enabling global trust, creating efficient farming techniques, and ensuring the success of technology designed by African developers.

As the CEO of InfoMart, Piovesan has led organizational innovation with multiple first-to-market, global identity and background screening solutions. Together with the InfoMart team, his efforts are driving record growth and pioneering industry innovation.
