About eSSIF-Lab

eSSIF-Lab (European Self-Sovereign Identity Framework Laboratory) is a lab-to-market project for ICT-24 subtopic 1-b “strengthening internet trustworthiness with electronic identities”, that facilitates the further development, integration and adoption of SSI technologies through a cascade funding approach targeting innovative companies developing SSI based solutions. eSSIF-Lab is championed by leading experts in SSI technologies, cascade funding, business acceleration and continuous deployment of open-source software.

eSSIF-Lab will award 62 subgrants in 2 types of open calls, 1 targeting technical enhancements and extensions of the SSI framework (20 subgrants, for SMEs, startups, self-employed individuals, academic innovators, and innovators from larger organisations), and 2 targeting SSI business and social innovations and applications (42 subgrants, for SMEs and startups).

The project will provide business and technical support to integrate SSI technology with market propositions, and to accelerate SSI-related businesses and social applications. The outreach through the open calls and the prominent position in the emerging SSI community will enable the eSSIF-Lab consortium to advance the broad uptake of SSI as a next-generation open and trusted digital identity solution.
