Service: Self Sovereign Attendancy

Responsible organisation: Blockchainlab Drenthe (Local Government)

At many conferences, events and classes, attendees are required to sign in via some form of attendance list. They often end up putting their name and signature on a public list, which many people can see or access. The typical registration sheet - usually a paper list open for everybody to see, is outdated and is often not GDPR compliant, as anybody with access to the list can copy the information on it. If any of the organizations involved had an incentive to manipulate the attendance numbers, a paper attendee list is very susceptible to fraud. Blockchain technology can offer a solution to this problem with the
development of the Self Sovereign Attendance App. With this app, based on IOTA, people can check in on a decentralized blockchain, which is immutable, transparent and cryptographically protected, so that only the authorized parties can access and see attendee data. The proof of concept was successful, and
BlockchainLab is continuing to develop the pilot building prototypes for the production app. With this solution, it has been shown how a blockchain-enabled solution can improve the safety, trust and fairness for different groups of users and organisations.
