European Digital Identity Wallets: first technical Toolbox towards prototypes
The Commission has recently published the first version of a common EU Toolbox to implement the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet).
This technical backbone, developed by Member States in close collaboration with the Commission, will be the basis to engineer a prototype Wallet that can be used for testing in a variety of use-cases.
The Toolbox will complement the legislative proposal on a trusted and secure Digital Identity. It is a first step to enable the creation of a robust framework for digital identification and authentication based on common standards across the EU. It aims to ensure a high level of trust in digital transactions in Europe. Member States will keep working closely with the Commission to continuously update the Toolbox.
At the same time, the Commission is also supporting large-scale pilots, under the Digital Programme, with up to EUR 50 million of co-financing to address high-priority use-cases for the Wallet, including the Mobile Driving Licence, eHealth, payments, and education/professional qualifications. The pilots are expected to start in the first half of 2023.
The European Digital Identity Wallet will provide a secure and convenient way for European citizens and business to identify themselves when needed for accessing digital services, at the click of a button on their phone. They will be able to securely store and use data for all sorts of services, such as checking in at the airport, renting a car, opening a bank account, or when logging in to their account on large online platforms. In addition, the EUDI Wallet will allow citizens to store credentials, such as a mobile driving licence, professional licences, eHealth, or educational credentials.

Limecraft - Powerful workflows for video products
If you’ve never heard of Limecraft, you’re clearly not working in the media sector. Their SaaS platform provides integrated workflows for media management, scripted and unscripted TV, and subtitling and localisation. It is used by leading broadcasting companies – such as BBC, VRT, NPO… – and production firms of which De Mensen or Hotel Hungaria might ring a bell (at least if you are Belgian).
NCP Flanders went to Ghent to interview Maarten Verwaest, CEO and cofounder, about how he sees Horizon 2020. Limecraft is a partner in the MeMAD project, which is a collaborative RIA project submitted to an ICT call topic.
