Service: Secure Digital Identities

Responsible organisation: German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (Central-Government)

The cooperative IDunion was chosen for a German innovation competition to “Showcase Secure Digital Identities”. The second phase of the project is backed by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy. Partners include DB Systel, Deutsche Telekom, GS1 Germany, Robert Bosch, Siemens and ten others with another 26 associate partners. IDunion’s aim is to use self-sovereign identities (SSI) to launch a production network and implement more than forty identity applications. Use cases range from education, mobility and e-health to finance and IoT solutions. It aims to establish identities for people, legal entities as well as things. Because the project is in its second phase, it already has a test network up and running with multiple functioning identity wallets.
