Episode notes
- What can we learn from the successes and shortcomings of previous identity systems, such as eIDAS 1.0 and existing private solutions?
- The evolving role of digital identity wallets within the broader context of eIDAS 2.0—why they are needed, what’s changing in digital identity regulation, and how these developments will affect individuals, businesses, and governments.
- How can we protect users’ private information while ensuring interoperability across all 27 EU member states?
- Should governments develop their own wallets, or is a multi-provider approach the way forward?
