Disrupt Meetup | Blockchain for Digital Identity - Privacy & Identity Management

Individuals and organizations are often not in control over their own identities. As a matter of fact, personal information is regularly shared without awareness and is a centralized source of sensitive data for hackers leading to information proliferation. Compliance and regulations like GDPR are also driving change for new identity solutions. This meetup will focus on whether or not Blockchain is the solution to deal with this problem.

Join this Disrupt meetup of the Digital Identity community in Frankfurt. It aims at bringing together blockchain enthusiastic enterprises and individuals that want to get to know the technology, as well as understand how it can be used and applied.
