Katinka currently works as the Business Development Manager in the New Growth team for BankID and BankAxpet. She has for the past three years been working on exposing BankID, the multipurpose eID and signature solution, beyond the confinements of Norway. With an eye for user experience, she has been a part of the team looking at ways the extensive experience and expertise Norway and BankID has accumulated, can help others succeed with digitalisation. BankID is almost used by 100% of the adult population in Norway and 40% uses it every single day. On average BankID users uses the service 220 times a year. BankID now has an app which can be used to authenticate on LoA high and with biometrics. It is a direct customer channel which will be used to continuously add more value for our users.

Katinka will have her MBA in October from Quantic School of Business and technology  and her bachelor’s degree in management and international Relations was undertaken at University of Exeter. During her BA she completed a year-long work placement in GSMA working within eID. Katinka’s dissertation looked at how Cryptocurrencies are affecting the state’s control of the economy.
