Reading books - rather than writing a book

I have been asked a good number of times if I am going to write a book about my rather long management and start-up experience when driving digitalisation. But then, the now rolling out migration to the EU Trust Infrastructure. - now with focus on Business wallets - is so extraordinarily important and interesting must-have ladder also to the next p...

Open Letter to the European Commission, Member States and beyond

Accelerating the EU-wide Trust Infrastructure The development of an EU-wide Trust Infrastructure (TI) is gaining momentum on several fronts. The most significant advancement is the Commission’s recognition that business wallets will become the cornerstone for both conducting business and interacting seamlessly with all levels of public administrat...

Are we trying to cook the ocean?

I have been busy promoting verifiable data from and to identity building wallet applications for soon ten years. Progress has been too slow – despite the drawings made by Trust over IP and Self-sovereign Identity – and actions by the EU-commission. When the AI-boom came I became worried that it will steal too much of the Trust Infrastructure atte...

The ice-hockey effect now with organisation wallets

Identity building wallets in organisations should be the starting point everywhere. How could you otherwise get the data flowing to business and life events? And how could you otherwise efficiently and safely deploy AI-agents?

 

Is India, UK and others now advancing with organisation wallets from the market while EU is losing time with state issued wallets instead of starting the heavy lifting - using market wallets to get the heavy lifting with public sector credential issuing and verifying process started? While soon all attention is lost to AI-agents and the like? Talking about 2027 now sounds like 10 years..
