While the European Digital Identity Wallet framework is well defined on paper, real-world implementations are only beginning to emerge.
This talk shares practical experience from implementing real-world use case combining multiple partners, to provide end services based on the EUDI framework. It demonstrates how wallet-based interactions and verifiable credentials can support everyday use cases across organisational boundaries

Selective Disclosure Is Not Enough
12:25—12:45

EUDI wallets are moving from theory to production, but selective disclosure alone will not solve the harder problem of trust at scale. As wallet-based interactions begin to scale across organisations, relying parties will have to solve for more than credential acceptance: they need zero-knowledge proof, orchestration across old and new identity systems, resilient fallback when wallet journeys fail, and revocation-aware trust. This session examines the practical design choices that will separate real-world adoption from another standards success story.
