The collaboration between Laxton and DNP brings together highly complementary strengths. Laxton’s full-stack biometric enrollment and authentication technology is now combined with DNP’s industrial capabilities in secure printing, digital identity platforms, and data protection. The result: a vertically integrated organization uniquely positioned to serve governments, institutions, and billions of citizens around the globe.

This integration aligns with a shared vision of building secure, inclusive societies through identity infrastructure. In particular, Laxton’s mission to address the global issue of undocumented individuals in emerging nations—who often lack access to government services and voting rights—will be accelerated through this partnership.

“Laxton's service of registering and authenticating individuals is a socially significant business that helps to resolve the major issue of people in emerging nations who lack legal identification and are therefore unable to receive social services. This acquisition occupies an extremely significant position in promoting the DNP global strategy, and we are confident that the combination of our two companies' technological capabilities, customer service capabilities, and sales capabilities will create significant synergies in the future,” said Yoshiki Numano, Senior Corporate Officer at DNP.
