DIDAS, or the Digital Identity and Data Sovereignty Association, is a Swiss organization dedicated to creating a future with more privacy and less friction in the digital world. As a neutral ground for experts, policy makers, and enthusiasts, DIDAS aims to build a self-sovereign identity ecosystem in Switzerland. Their mission and goals are based on Swiss values and advocate for global standards with local governance for digital identities and data sovereignty.

By taking an identity-centered approach, DIDAS supports fundamental changes in how social, public, and business sectors operate, interact, and transact. DIDAS provides individuals and organizations the opportunity to shape and accelerate the Digital Identity and Data Sovereignty movement in Switzerland. Through a collaborative, human-centered approach called co-creation, they offer a neutral ground for diverse experts from various industries to come together.

Members are encouraged to carry ideas and results back to their organizations to create value and drive impact. DIDAS also emphasizes the importance of learning about digital identities and verifiable credentials, as well as the need for data privacy and digital sovereignty. They promote the use of self-sovereign identity principles, technology, and standards to securely receive and share data while removing friction from processes and enabling new ways to interact and transact.

If you share their passion for a more digital Switzerland, DIDAS invites you to join their community of experts, contribute to working groups, and drive positive change in the digital identity landscape
