Digital organizational identity is increasingly central to a wide range of policy objectives – from modernizing public services and enabling safe financial innovation to strengthening digital trade and cross-border activity. It also plays a key role in managing risks such as fraud, cybercrime and identity misuse, while supporting data protection, privacy and emerging use cases such as agentic AI and verifiable data sharing. At the same time, policymakers and market participants face a key challenge: how to design digital identity systems that balance global interoperability with diverse policy priorities and innovation goals.
To address these questions, GLEIF invites experts in digital public policy, economics, law and technology to submit proposals contributing to the future design of digital organizational identity ecosystems.
Call for Papers: “Aligning policy aims for international Digital Organizational Identity infrastructure – is there a digital policy trilemma?”
