COVID-19 has become a global pandemic and it is unclear how long it will continue to disrupt global economies and societies with a detrimental effect on economic activity. The uncertainty around how long this situation will persist and what will be the consequences for the health and economies of societies increases the complexity of developing and design a concise set of measures to mitigate the risks. With the emergence of COVID-19, the world is experiencing unprecedented challenges that could erase all of the 4th Industrial Revolution developments. The pandemic has profoundly impacted the ongoing digital transformation by accelerating the need for countries and individuals to start adopting digital technologies to ensure their basic well-being, and future productivity.

This webinar is co-organized by WISekey and the Trust Protocol Association. The purpose of the Trust Protocol Association is to establish a new Trust Protocol for the Internet to create a new Global Trust platform by combining traditional Cryptographic Trust Models with distributed blockchain ledgers. The mission of the Trust Protocol Association is to create an ecosystem of governmental, technology and business partners, where each partner represents a node with the possibility of having multiple nodes per country.
