Can Decentralized Identity Be The Future of Digital Trust? [Free Live Event]
Decentralized identity has emerged as one of the most promising and complex shifts in digital identity, with major implications for IAM and ID verification.
But as adoption grows and ID wallet ecosystems emerge, so do the questions: Can decentralized identity truly deliver on its promise? Who stands to benefit or lose the most? Can it scale? And who will pay for it?
In this episode, we’re joined by two of the leading voices in identity: Charles Walton, Principal at The Agosti Group and former SVP of Identity at Avast and Mastercard, and Martin Kuppinger, Principal Analyst and Founder at KuppingerCole.
Together, we’ll explore:
- The most compelling use cases for decentralized ID and where it could fall short.
- What conditions, advances are needed to drive adoption.
- What kind of business models can realistically sustain this technology.
- Why a global “acceptance mark” for digital trust might be the key.
- What digital identity needs to look like in the age of AI, bots, and autonomous agents.
Whether you're deep in the identity world or just trying to make sense of the shift to reusable credentials and decentralized models, this conversation is packed with sharp insights and practical thinking.
💡 Why Dock Labs is Organizing This Event
At Dock Labs, our conversations with identity providers, IAM specialists, and industry leaders have made one thing clear: there’s growing excitement around decentralized identity, but also a lot of unanswered questions.
As we help organizations adopt verifiable credentials and reusable identity models, we’ve seen how critical it is to understand not just the technology, but also the business models, infrastructure, and trust dynamics needed to make it all work at scale.
That’s why we’re hosting this session—so we can bring together leading voices in the space to explore the real-world potential of decentralized identity, and help our community cut through the hype, ask smarter questions, and stay ahead of what’s coming next.
