In September, Blockchain Alliance Europe organized a free webinar on new IT concepts and solutions at the forefront of digitizing public and business services. We hosted three renowned Slovenian experts, actively designing innovative solutions for e-services to raise public awareness of these technologies.

They discussed how self-sovereign identities, blockchain, and secure data exchange models should be implemented to form new trust infrastructures which could enable privacy protection and offset new business models.

Recordings of all lectures and of the discussion which followed are available below.
