IdentityNORTH Spring Workshop
About the Event
Join us virtually for IdentityNORTH’s 2022 Spring Symposium on April 5th & 6th, 2022 as we explore Growth and Recovery in Canada’s Digital Economy. Both days will be filled with insightful conversations led by digital and economic leaders from around the world, with topics including (but not limited to) Commercial and Citizen Identity Solutions and Interoperability.
We encourage you to join the discussion – from near or far – as we dive into what will be an energetic, interactive, and educational revival of Canada’s stewardship in a digital ecosystem.
Speaker Submissions for this event are now open. Have someone in mind who you’d like to be a part of the conversation? Enter your submission here to help shape the agenda.

Agenda
Why Attend IdentityNORTH Events?
IdentityNORTH was founded on a vision of building a community for the purpose of supporting 3 objectives:
Educate:
Inspire Canadians with a sense of the new opportunities presented by broad adoption of decentralized Digital ID as a foundational piece in our lives. We see a huge opportunity to grow our economy by building literacy around decentralized Digital ID, privacy, and the emergence of our digital economy.
Connect:
Guide Canadians into a bigger, broader set of discussions, and activities surrounding decentralized Digital ID and its applications. The solutions to the challenges and opportunities ahead likely already lie in exploring each other’s ideas, technology, and working together. We can’t work together if we don’t know each other. How better to really know someone than to learn from leaders, engage in lively discussion, explore new ideas and share meals together?
Promote:
Support world-class Canadian companies as they seek to gain profile and access to projects and opportunities across Canada and around the world. We Canadians punch above our weight, contributing seminal work like The 7 Laws of Identity, Privacy by Design, the widely adopted Levels of Assurance, and the decentralized Digital ID and Authentication Council of Canada. Unfortunately, we often export by exporting our people. IdentityNORTH will help Canadians to share our technology and architectures around the world and, in doing so, to also export our principles to help lead the world. We will help create a globally recognized hub of excellence here in Canada.
