All parties have interoperable and general purpose wallet applications in devices of their own choice and get all data, service alternatives and goods needed to the context without need for technical integrations. Easily and megaclass...

Governments and enterprises will adopt a global trust infrastructure, resulting in citizens and organizations receiving general-purpose identity wallets that can obtain, deliver, and pass on verified data for a wide range of life events based on MyData.org principles. The architecture is outlined in trustoverip.org, and the trust layer in the ar

Proud of the Nordics - worried about the Single Market

I have been acting as an independent advisor for the Findyconsortium in Finland (now the public-private Findynet co-operative) since it started in 2018. It aims at implementing a trust infrastructure based on Self-Sovereign Identity and the Trust over IP architecture. Here all citizens, all organisations and many things will get general purpose fa...
