OCTOBER 29 2025
Signicat, a leading pan-European Digital Identity Service Provider, has been included in the Financial Times and Statista ranking of “Europe’s Long-Term Growth Champions” 2026, published in October 2025. This marks the second year in a row for Signicat, with the list recognizing companies that have demonstrated sustained growth over the last ten years.
Signicat has strengthened its position in the European digital identity market through both organic and strategic initiatives. The company has invested heavily in the development of new products, while also completing eight targeted acquisitions in the past six years to expand its technology portfolio, customer base, and market expertise. Most recently, the acquisition of Inverid, a leader in NFC-based identity verification, added further capability to address identity fraud and meet the increasing demand for secure, scalable identity solutions.
“Our inclusion for the second year in a row reflects more than a decade of sustained organic growth supported by a consistent strategy,” said Asger Hattel, CEO at Signicat. “Continuous investment in technology and expanding our reach by working with some of Europe’s largest companies have been central to this journey.”
Today, Signicat employs more than 530 employees across 15 European countries and supports over 1300 financial institutions, public sector organizations, and enterprises across sectors. The demand for secure, user-friendly digital identity solutions continues to accelerate globally, driven by new regulations and rising fraud threats, areas where Signicat is recognized as a market leader.
In parallel, Signicat plays an active role in the regulatory transformation of digital identity in Europe. The company is participating in four Large-Scale Pilots (LSPs) for the European Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet, including its most recent involvement in the WE BUILD Consortium as well as Aptitude, selected by the European Commission to develop and test cross-border wallet solutions.
“Targeted acquisitions and active participation in Europe’s regulatory initiatives have further strengthened our position,” added Hattel. “This long-term approach ensures we are ready to address emerging challenges such as AI-driven identity fraud, while continuing to deliver compliant, secure, and scalable solutions across Europe.”
