DIACC Workshop Exploring Digital ID Federation Opportunities (Nov.2) was an opportunity to connect, share and learn about the emerging digital ID ecosystem. The DIACC Trust Framework working group – the Trust Framework Expert Committee (TFEC) – provided a report out of the latest developments to develop components of the Pan-Canadian Trust Framework (PCTF). DIACC members shared their perspectives regarding the challenges and opportunities ahead.
Digital ID International Industry Day (Nov.3) converged public and private innovators from around the world to share perspectives that help to accelerate the establishment of a privacy-respective digital ID ecosystem that Canadians can use securely and with confidence. Attendees had the opportunity to network with thought leaders from Australia, Canada, Denmark, Israel, Mexico, the United Kingdom and the United States. Attendees gained insights regarding the Canadian market place and in the perspective of the digital ID requirements for the global digital economy.
