Entertech Systems, Pioneer In Biometrics, Sets Growth Objectives, Joins Biotalent Canada’s National Partnership Network

OTTAWA, Ontario--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Entertech Systems, a Toronto-based biometrics firm has joined BioTalent Canada as a top-growth employer. Labeled Showcase Employers, as part of BioTalent Canada’s network, these top-hiring employers leverage BioTalent Canada’s position within the sector to facilitate access to skilled talent.

“When an organization has a goal like ours, the people are so critical for us to be able to continue to push forward – replacing outdated processes with biometrics”

The collaboration between the two organizations has already been instrumental in helping Entertech Systems hire talented new graduates. According to BioTalent Canada’s labour market report, Sequencing the Data, shortage of skilled labour is a challenge for over half of Canadian biotechnology companies.

The people that make up an organization are instrumental to its success. A strong team will give a growing company the ability to innovate, be agile to customer and market demands and bring new and strategic products and solutions to the table.

Entertech Systems is disrupting the status quo by saying that cards, keys, PINs and passwords -- the current norm for identity verification, should no longer be the standard. Biometrics are powerful in that they are completely unique to an individual and Entertech Systems’ goal is to provide solutions that ensure easy adoption of biometric technologies, giving people back their rightful identity. Their software platform, hardware, custom identity-applications, support and consulting services operate to help key markets make the transition to biometrics easy.

“When an organization has a goal like ours, the people are so critical for us to be able to continue to push forward – replacing outdated processes with biometrics,” said Jeff Crews, President of Entertech Systems. “Through our partnership with BioTalent Canada we have been able to identify and bring on a ton of new graduates who have been instrumental to the success of our business in the past six months. They bring new ideas, drive, passion and a unique skillset which will continue to push us forward as we move along this quest.”

“BioTalent Canada’s top-hiring employers recruit 50% or more of their new hires through our job board, The PetriDish, or through projects that aim to alleviate the skills shortage within biotech by tapping into underutilized talent pools like new grads,” said Rob Henderson, President and CEO of BioTalent Canada. “Entertech Systems has been a champion in hiring new grads. I am pleased to have them as a partner.”

As a partner of BioTalent Canada, Entertech Systems joins one of Canada’s largest national biotechnology networks, comprised of over 30 national, provincial and private sector partners. BioTalent Canada’s other partners include Innovative Medicines Canada, BIOTECanada, MEDEC, Canadian Renewable Fuels Association (CRFA), Human Resources Professionals Association (HRPA) and Porter Airlines. This network gives partners a direct channel and exposure to thousands of employers and job seekers.
