DIDx
Software Development
We focus on self-sovereign identity and verifiable credential exchange. We believe in the power of identity!
About us
One of the key issues we face today is that most of our credentials are paper-based and difficult to share digitally. We require new tools and technologies that create reusable verifiable digital credentials that are easy to share and verify. With decentralised identity technology, this is now possible.

Thank you Khairah Hoosen! Great having you at DID:UNCONF AFRICA 🚀
Attending DID:UNCONF AFRICA was an incredible experience—one that expanded my understanding of Digital Identity and its potential to transform communities across Africa. The knowledge and insights I gained at this conference have directly contributed to my research at UCT, where I am exploring how digital literacy can empower refugee communities. Learning about digital identity, accessibility, and inclusion has given me a fresh perspective. A massive thank you to the DIDx team for organizing such a thought-provoking and insightful event. It was a privilege to engage with experts and changemakers who are actively shaping the future of digital identity. I’m especially grateful to the University of Cape Town and Sarah M. from the Department of Information Systems for the opportunity to be part of this. Special thanks to Gideon Lombard, Fraser Edwards, Anushka Soma-Patel, and Lohan Spies for their inspiring work in this space! Excited to apply these insights and keep the conversation going! #DigitalIdentity #DIDX #UCT #RefugeeEmpowerment #TechForGood
