Inclusion can be a “precondition of obtaining ID and access to lots of services”, said Christina Hirsch.

Inclusion is an important part of women’s lives and career journeys. Inclusion means everyone can have access to services and trust those services work for the customer. Regarding recent failures in the trust of the internet, distribution of harmful content and AI algorithms, this precedent of trust has never been so important.

Digital products that offer the best customer experience all-round are engineered by talented people from different backgrounds and fields, and it’s safe to say, large-scale initiatives such as eIDAS and the AI Act harness all expertise to innovate how we consume these highly-diffused technologies within our society.
