Letter from GlobalPlatform’s Executive Director

Dear GlobalPlatform Members,

I hope this email finds you well. I have recently returned from a series of meetings in Tokyo connecting with members in the region as we met with the Japan Task Force, held the Automotive Security Roundtable and engaged on digital identity interoperability discussions at a SIDI Hub event. (Presentations from the Japan Task Force and Automotive Security Roundtable are available in the member portal.)

Additionally, on October 10th, we brought together EU officials, representatives from EU Member States, device manufacturers, cybersecurity experts, and other stakeholders in Brussels last week for our second GlobalPlatform eID Wallet Seminar. It served as a unique opportunity to strengthen collaboration on EUDI initiatives and accelerate the technical roadmap. Read the event summary and access the presentations and video.
