The Netherlands is one of the countries on the forefront of Digital Identity initiatives. Whether through governmental or private endeavours there are exciting developments happening in this space as we speak.
We, ourselves, are based in The Netherlands. Our expertise in digital identity technologies has led us to run multiple on-going pilots with a major international NGO and to working with the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, winning awards by The Chivas Venture, the Blockchain Innovation Conference, The Spindle Innovation and more.
To make life easier for you, we compiled a list of Dutch people and organisations you definitely should follow if you’re interested in Digital Identity, Self-Sovereign Identity and Blockchain.
