Data's New Dawn: Sovereign Clouds and Digital ID

Data's New Dawn: Sovereign Clouds and Digital ID

Thursday, Jun 20, 2024 From 09:00 to 11:00

The Spot, Bottova 2/A, Bratislava

Business Breakfast

SPONSORED BY:

Join us for an engaging business breakfast where we delve into the crucial topics of Data Sovereignty and Digital ID. With the enforcement of EU regulations like the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the upcoming European Data Act, the importance of maintaining control over data has never been greater. Sovereign clouds are emerging as a vital solution, enabling organizations to store and manage data within national borders, ensuring compliance, and enhancing security. This is particularly significant for large corporations handling vast amounts of sensitive information, as well as small businesses striving to build customer trust and protect their data. 

 

We’ll also explore the transformative power of digital IDs. Learn from Germany’s best practices on how robust digital IDs can streamline cross-border trade within the EU by providing a secure, interoperable identity while supporting the Digital Single Market strategy. Digital IDs not only improve user experience but also enable seamless and secure transactions across member states.

 

This event will provide insights into the strategic importance of these topics and their impact on businesses of all sizes. Digital identity walks hand in hand with Data & Technology Sovereignty in the context of EU Digitalization. By addressing these challenges, we can help shape a secure and compliant digital future for everyone.

 

Agenda:

8:30 – Registration

In Germany approval has been granted by Gematik for the first digital identity for healthcare, endorsing Telekom/T-Systems' ID service. This approval paves the way for health cards and electronic ID cards to be utilized through digital devices like smartphones. Starting in 2024, health insurers in Germany will be mandated to offer digital identities to their policyholders. This initiative aligns with the European Union's efforts to enhance online safety and promote digital identities as essential tools for digitalization and European integration. T-Systems, emphasizes the importance of secure digital identities for creating trust online and simplifying the management of usernames and passwords. We are giving citizens back sovereignty over their data! Join us, and find out more about the digital solutions of the future.
