Long theorized as the solution to the verification problem on the internet, decentralized identity has now achieved lift-off in the marketplace. In this workshop, we’ll explain who’s interested, why, and what we learned building a series of solutions for global enterprises in the finance, health, and travel sectors. We’ll explain how we implement decentralized identity through the concept of a Trusted Data Ecosystem, and what the near future looks like for businesses who adopt this technology now, including the critical importance of verifiable digital identity to decentralized finance, the metaverse, and to the interaction of digital objects and non-digital objects in the spatial web—the “Internet of Everything.”
