Attend
One day in Midtown Manhattan.
Thursday, May 6, 2027. Doors open 8:30am with registration and arrival coffee; the program runs to networking drinks from 3:40pm and the event closes at 4:40pm.
New York Marriott Marquis, 1535 Broadway, in the heart of Times Square, Midtown Manhattan. The East Coast's biggest dedicated IAM event puts 400+ identity leaders in one room for one focused day.
Free for practitioners. Curated for seniority.
Identity World keeps the room senior and practitioner-led. Passes for identity and security practitioners are complimentary, and every application is reviewed so the peer group stays worth your day. Vendors and service providers join as partners rather than delegates.
Good to know.
Who attends?
CISOs, Heads of Identity, and the leads who own IAM, CIAM, IGA, PAM, fraud and KYC programs across enterprise, government and scale-ups. 400+ attendees from 250+ organizations, 70% large enterprise.
What does a pass cost?
Practitioner passes are complimentary. Attendance is curated, so every registration is reviewed before it is confirmed.
I’m a vendor. Can I attend?
Vendors and service providers join through the partner program, which includes speaking, roundtable and 1:1 meeting formats. See the Partnership page.
What is the dress code?
Business casual. No lanyard-and-suit requirement: come as you would to a senior peer meeting.
Are sessions recorded?
Roundtables run as closed-room conversations. For keynote and panel materials, speak to the team after the event.
Can I bring a colleague?
Often, yes. Seats are limited, but additional practitioners from the same team are welcome to apply through registration.
Is there a virtual or online option?
No. Identity World is in-person only. The value is in the room: the roundtable you sit at, the peer you compare notes with over lunch, the conversation that carries on afterwards.
When and where is East Coast Identity World 2027?
Thursday, May 6, 2027 at New York Marriott Marquis, 1535 Broadway, New York, NY 10036.
What time does the day start and finish?
Doors open at 8:30am and the program closes at 4:40pm. Around two of those hours are deliberately given to breaks, lunch and networking rather than sessions.
What is actually on the agenda?
Keynotes, panels, roundtables and think tanks across workforce identity, CIAM, IGA, PAM, non-human identities and agentic AI. The full program and speaker lineup are on the Agenda page.
How do I register?
Registration takes a couple of minutes and costs nothing for practitioners. Every registration is reviewed before it is confirmed, and you will hear back by email.
Will I be sold to?
No. There are no vendors in the audience and no sales pitches from the stage. Partners take part through roundtables and 1:1 meetings that you opt into yourself.
Can I speak at Identity World?
The program is built by practitioners, for practitioners. If you would like to be considered for a keynote, panel or roundtable, get in touch through the Contact page.
Who runs Identity World?
Identity World is produced by Clutch Events. The series runs across five cities on three continents: Sydney, Melbourne, New York, London and San Francisco.
