We are organising a workshop for an innovative digital identity wallet in the framework of the PRIVÉ project
Homo Digitalis is a proud partner of the PRIVÉ project!
On 13 February at 18.00, we will host a workshop to present the solution developed within the project and have it evaluated by privacy-conscious end-users:
The EUDI wallet will revolutionise the way digital identity is handled in Europe. But how do we achieve widespread user adoption? Are privacy and trust important factors and are they sufficiently taken into account in the current EUDI architecture?
In response to these pressing questions, the PRIVÉ project is pleased to announce a webinar (hybrid) on 13 February 2024. This event will present an innovative solution for digital identity wallets that not only emphasizes strong privacy mechanisms, but also features seamless integration with the eIDAS and GDPR frameworks, setting a new benchmark for digital identity solutions.
13.02.2024, 18:00 Athens time
Three parallel sessions simultaneously:
-Athens.
-HERAKLEIO: at Bizrupt, Vikelas 34-36.
-Online session via Zoom
This webinar offers a unique, hands-on experience with PRIVÉ Wallet, inviting participants to engage directly with the technology through a real-life implementation scenario. We invite you to be part of its evolution. Your feedback on the usability of the wallet and your insights into the factors influencing the adoption of EUDI wallets by European citizens will be invaluable.
Join us in shaping the future of digital identity in Europe – a future where your identity is secure, your privacy is respected and your trust is earned.
