Synthèse

The global biometrics market has been experiencing robust growth, with a predicted acceleration and a CAGR of 16.2% from 2019 to 2027, potentially reaching $55.42 billion by 2027. Despite Asia Pacific leading the growth with the highest CAGR of 18.5%, Europe, including the French market, is lagging due to concerns over personal data use and stringent regulations such as the GDPR. Demand for biometrics is notably strong in the transportation sector, specifically airports aiming to improve passenger flow, as well as in the financial and banking services sector where there is a significant interest in biometric payment methods. The French biometrics market is dominated by national champions such as Idemia, Gemalto (Thales group), and IN Groupe, which are major global players as well. The future applications of biometrics in France are likely to see wider adoption in everyday activities, particularly in banking with initiatives like contactless biometric bank cards, while concerns over personal data security remain a challenge for the broader acceptance of biometric technology..### Current Trends and Dynamics of Biometric Technologies in France The biometrics market in France, albeit hesitant due to concerns surrounding individual freedoms, is witnessing nuanced growth fueled by several national, international actors, and SMEs. The French landscape in biometric technology is marked by innovative leadership, with companies like Idemia at the forefront, boasting a turnover nearing €2.8 billion. Close on its heels, Gemalto, now part of the Thales group, reported turnover nearing €3 billion, manifesting the national prowess in the global biometric sphere. The French market's cautious yet steady expansion is seen across various demand sectors, most notably the state and institutions, the private sector, and among the general public. Public services, such as the issuance of biometric passports by IN Groupe, previously known as Imprimerie Nationale, with production numbers reaching over 12.5 million, reflect a strong institutional demand. Private sectors, particularly airports and financial services, exhibit vibrant use trends. Solutions like the PARAFE system, developed by Gemalto for a cost of €12.5 million, are modernizing passenger experiences in airports like Charles de Gaulle. The transportation sector's bent towards biometric technology, with airport demand at around €156 million, is expected to double in the impending years. This uptick is mirrored in the banking and financial services sector, where the inclination towards biometric payment options is significantly high. For instance, a staggering 82% of French consumers exhibited a readiness to swap their PIN code for a fingerprint authentication system. However, the consumer relationship with technology bears an overlay of concern - 76% of French citizens express wariness about data collection, despite 79% showing active interest in new technologies. Market structures reveal significant focus on physiological and behavioral measures. While fingerprint recognition leads the pack with robust growth projections of around 115% between 2017 and 2022, facial recognition isn't far behind, expecting a similar growth trajectory. These technologies, with their current applications such as secured smartphones like the iPhone X with Face ID, are signaling toward a future where biometric payments could become commonplace. Gemalto's CABIS software and IN Groupe's key role in producing biometric passports are existing examples of the technology's deep foray into daily French life. The application of biometrics extends further into the payment systems, with Société Générale pioneering contactless, fingerprint-authenticated bank cards. This burgeoning segment could see more banks adopt similar technologies. Meanwhile, the French population remains vigilant, with only between .### Key Players in the Biometric Technology Market The biometric technology market is marked by the presence of some significant players, both on the national and international fronts.

1 Market summary

1.1 Definition and scope of study

Biometrics, whose literal meaning means the measurement of the human body, refers to a set of techniques designed to recognize a person's identity based on their physical and biological characteristics (eyes, hand, voice, etc.). Biometrics can either identify a person, i.e. recognize them in the middle of a crowd for example, or authenticate a person, i.e. provide their identity based on one or more of their biological or behavioural characteristics.

The first biometric technology was introduced in 1974, designed by Safran on behalf of the FBI. Since then, biometrics has been booming for several years, in the face of new threats and data and identity theft facilitated by the expansion of new technologies. France is a pioneer in this field on the international scene, with highly innovative and efficient companies.

Nevertheless, through its use of personal data, biometrics also remains a subject of mistrust, which considerably hinders its growth, particularly in countries such as France where individual freedoms have always been a fundamental issue.
