Digital identity only succeeds when people actually use it. While the underlying technologies for wallets and verifiable credentials are advancing rapidly, real-world adoption depends on trust, usability, and clear value for everyday users. This track focuses on how digital identity is being introduced, tested, and refined in practice across different environments.
Sessions will explore the rollout of digital identity wallets in Europe, from early sandbox initiatives to large-scale deployment strategies. Attendees will gain insight into how technical standards, governance models, and stakeholder collaboration come together to move from pilot to production, and what challenges emerge along the way.
A central theme is user experience. For most people, identity should feel simple and intuitive. The track will examine how to design wallet solutions that balance security and privacy with ease of use, ensuring that concepts such as selective disclosure translate into meaningful benefits that users understand and trust.
Real-world pilots provide a critical learning ground. Sessions will highlight implementations across sectors such as education, cross-border services, and professional ecosystems, showing how digital credentials can support practical use cases while remaining interoperable and standards-based.
Across these discussions, the focus is on bridging the gap between capability and adoption. Participants will gain a clearer understanding of what it takes to build identity solutions that are not only secure and compliant, but also trusted, accessible, and widely used.
