It’s been reported that business leaders have joined forces with Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham to explore the potential use of new vein ID biometric technology that could be used in the region’s transport, education and healthcare services.

It was initially launched in the hospitality sector for payments, and has been adapted for identity purposes in recent months.
