Decentralized identity is moving from concept to reality, driven by the upcoming EU Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet! But can digital identity truly become something we trust?

Join us in this Road to EIC episode of the KuppingerCole Analyst Chat where Matthias speaks with Martin Kuppinger about what decentralized identity actually means, how EUDI Wallets work, and why their success depends on real business value. Tune in to learn how verifiable credentials, issuer-holder-verifier models, and privacy-preserving architectures could fundamentally reshape authentication, onboarding, and digital transactions across Europe.

You’ll learn:
✅ What decentralized identity and verifiable credentials actually are
✅ How the EUDI Wallet changes control over personal data
✅ Why trust depends on implementation, not just technology
✅ The difference between mandatory use cases and real adoption
✅ How businesses can reduce costs and streamline processes
✅ Why success requires compelling everyday use scenarios
✅ What organizations should do now to prepare

Beyond government interactions, the real potential lies in transforming complex business processes, from onboarding and compliance to loans, contracts, and digital transactions using trusted, reusable identity data. The EUDI Wallet isn’t just a new login method, it’s foundational infrastructure for Europe’s digital economy. Watch now to understand what decentralized identity means for enterprises, citizens, and the future of trust online.
