As digital identity ecosystems move from concept to deployment, the focus is shifting toward real-world viability. This track explores how digital wallets, verifiable credentials, and modern authentication methods are being implemented in practice, and what it takes to make them sustainable at scale.
Sessions will examine the emerging European Digital Identity Wallet landscape and how it differs from other global digital identity and data exchange ecosystems. A key question is how value is created and sustained. Attendees will explore the evolving business models for wallet providers, the roles of different ecosystem participants, and the economic and regulatory factors that will shape long-term adoption.
The track also looks at the practical foundations of trust. Technologies such as passkeys are extending beyond authentication to play a central role in securing digital wallets and credential-based interactions. Sessions will show how these components work together to deliver strong security while maintaining usability across devices and platforms.
Real-world implementation is a central theme. As large-scale pilots and early deployments take shape, organizations are beginning to understand what works, what does not, and what needs to change. Attendees will gain insight into how to design, pilot, and scale wallet-based solutions that operate across organizational and national boundaries.
Across these discussions, the emphasis is on turning frameworks into functioning systems. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of how decentralized identity can move from regulatory ambition to operational reality, and what is required to make it trusted, usable, and economically viable.
