TechDispatch Talks - Digital Identity Wallets

5 March 2026
Miriam Cakurdova & Massimo Attoresi

TechDispatch Talks explores the intersection of technology, data protection, and privacy. In this episode, we discuss how Digital Identity Wallets could transform the way we prove who we are online and offline.

This year, each EU Member State will offer at least one official European Digital Identity Wallet. Instead of swimming in dozens of passwords or relying on 'Log in with' platforms, we could use one secure wallet on our phone to store digital credentials - from our ID, driving license to university diplomas or gym card - and share only what is necessary with a high level of cybersecurity.

Could it reduce data oversharing and profiling while also examining the real privacy and security risks? Join us to know more about digital identity wallets.
