Government
Governments are at the heart of digital trust and digital identity. Yet today, many permits, certificates, and registrations are still exchanged on paper or as PDFs – slow to process, costly to handle, and vulnerable to fraud. Why should a citizen wait weeks for a certificate, when the same proof can be verified in seconds with a verifiable credential?
The Opportunity
With the Business Wallet issuance service, the local government issues the business registration as a verifiable credential directly to the entrepreneur's wallet. When applying abroad, the entrepreneur shares this credential instantly with the foreign authority, which can verify authenticity within seconds. No paperwork, no waiting. Just trusted, fraud-proof exchange of government-issued records that accelerates business and reduces administrative overhead.

A Story from Business Registration
An entrepreneur wants to register a new business across borders in Europe. Today, this often means printing out official extracts, sending notarized copies by post, and waiting weeks for manual checks by different authorities. Each document can be tampered with, each step adds delay.
