Blockchain - ESSIF Stakeholder meeting

The European Blockchain Partnership is pleased to invite you to the second edition of the European Self Sovereign Identity Framework (ESSIF) user group stakeholder meeting, taking place in Brussels on Wednesday 15 January 2020 from 9:30-13:00.

Learn more on the progress of this project as part of the European Blockchain Service Infrastructure, the potential next steps, possible interaction with the emerging SSI-market and most important the interchange of ideas on how to collaborate on a self-sovereign identity for citizens and organizations in Europe and the world. Registration open until 10 January.

The European Blockchain Services Infrastructure (EBSI) is a joint initiative from the European Commission and the European Blockchain Partnership to deliver EU-wide cross-border public services using blockchain technology. The EBSI will be materialised as a network of distributed nodes across Europe (the blockchain), leveraging an increasing number of applications focused on specific use cases. In 2020, EBSI will become a CEF Building Block, providing reusable software, specifications and services to support adoption by EU institutions and European public administrations.
