Call for Papers
14th Open Identity Summit 2027
May 26th – May 28th , 2027, Oslo, Norway
https://openidentity.eu
================================================================
Submission deadline: January 31st , 2027
================================================================
The Open Identity Summit 2027 aims to connect diverse perspectives from academia, industry, and public administration to advance the state of digital identity, privacy, and trust. Identity Management (IDM) forms a cornerstone of secure, trustworthy digital infrastructures, thereby laying the foundation for trustworthy digital interactions.
Open standards, interoperable interfaces, and open-source technologies continue to define the IDM landscape. They are key enablers of secure and user-centric solutions in domains such as digital payments, e-health, e-government, manufacturing, AI data governance, and IoT ecosystems. While today’s solutions already ensure authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality, emerging challenges demand new approaches to transparency, accountability, user control, and privacy protection.
The Summit welcomes interdisciplinary contributions that combine technical innovation with socio-technical insight, usability research, and empirical studies. We particularly encourage submissions addressing real-world deployments, governance frameworks, and open collaboration models in digital identity.
Researchers, practitioners, and policymakers are invited to submit papers presenting novel concepts, practical experiences, and theoretical foundations.
