Digital Identity Week 2026: Navigating the Future of Trust

In 2026, the digital landscape is evolving at an unprecedented pace. As enterprises and government sectors race to adapt, the challenges of digital identity and access management have reached new heights. The stakes are higher, the risks more complex and the need for innovation more urgent.

At Digital Identity Week 2026, we are bringing together industry leaders, innovators, and policymakers to explore the cutting-edge solutions and strategies shaping the future of digital identity. From the implications of the Digital ID Act to the integration of verifiable credentials and the ethical considerations of biometric data, our event is designed to provide actionable insights and foster meaningful discussions. Whether you're looking to enhance your organisation's security posture, navigate regulatory complexities, or explore the latest technological advancements, Digital Identity Week is the event you don't want to miss.

Hear what our Past Attendees had to say

Digital Transformation Leader JPAC & ASIA ex-Sanofi

I had the pleasure of attending this year’s Digital Identity Week and stepping into the role of moderator for the final session on Day 1, all sessions on Day 2, and serving as Day 2 chair. A warm thank you for the opportunity, it was a truly enriching experience. As a first-time attendee, I was genuinely impressed by the depth of engagement and expertise in the room. It’s clear that organisations are in capable hands as they navigate the acceleration of digital identity and its many dimensions. I look forward to reconnecting next year and continuing the conversation.

Cyber Security Analyst

The Digital Identity week was an amazing and interesting event. Bringing together a range of professionals within the Digital Identity space, there were informative expert panels and a range of opportunities to have engaging and meaningful conversations with others.

Senior Manager, Identity and Access Management Insignia Financial

I'm grateful to the IQPC team for the opportunity to participate as a speaker at this event this year and in 2024. I look forward to another high quality event next year

Solution Architect, Service NSW

Thanks Digital Identity week for introducing me to Verifiable Credentials. This could radically change the way we deal with staff and customer identity.

Product Manager, Telstra Limited

Absolutely loved Digital week, unfortunately could not spend as much time as I wanted, however seeing the vendors and development of tools in this area was very intriguing and providing so many opportunities to connect and partner up. Big thanks to the team for making me feel very welcome and connecting me with some strategic partners.
