What is a verified credentials ecosystem?
In an increasingly digital world, the need for secure, reliable, and easily accessible verification of credentials is paramount because without it, we risk significant financial losses, data breaches, and compromised trust.. A Verified Credentials Ecosystem (VCE) addresses this need by providing a place where credentials can be issued, managed, and verified efficiently.
Panel Showcase: Everything needs an identity!
In our increasingly digital world, the concept of identity is evolving rapidly. Following Dave Birch’s keynote presentation our panellists will explore a diverse range of perspectives on identity, opportunities and challenges, including digital wallets, smart devices, AI and regulatory frameworks.
Safer, faster, simpler – How a digital identity could transform our day-to-day lives
Proving your identity is a chore, whether you’re buying a bottle of wine, getting a senior fare on the bus, buying a house or opening an investment account. There can be some serious ID hoops to jump through just to get even basic admin tasks done. We dutifully get out our licenses, photocopy documents, scan our passports, and make in-person trips to banks and government agencies whenever we need to verify our identity. It’s not fun, but we’ve become resigned to it.
Good news – a better way is on the horizon. Digital identity technology is going to transform the way we prove who we are. It will save enormous amounts of time and money, make our information safer, and give us more control over our data.
