By Humans, For Humans: The Future of Digital Identity

​Join us at the Nethermind Edinburgh office as we showcase the next step in digital identity, where advanced biometrics, privacy engineering, and real-world cryptography meet.

​This is an evening for those interested in how hardware and software converge to deliver self-custodial, privacy-preserving identity solutions for people and enterprises.

​What’s happening?

• ​6:00pm – Doors open

• ​7:00pm – Insights from the team:

  • ​Jorik Schellekens (Co-CTO) on Nethermind’s mission and our work at the frontier of decentralized technology.

  • ​Nathan Jay and Sean Bourelle (Hardware Team Leads) on the palm-vein scanning technology: why we chose it, how zero-knowledge proofs ensure privacy, and what it takes to secure unique human authentication at scale.

• ​8:00pm until close – Food and conversation. Explore the office, try a live demo of our biometric devices, and connect directly with the team driving this ambitious effort.

​Why attend?

• ​Discover how privacy-first biometric hardware is being built from the ground up, combining palm-vein and palm-print recognition, secure multi-party computation, and zero-knowledge middleware.

• ​Understand practical applications in payments, access control, events, and Sybil-resistant web3 onboarding.

• ​Connect with a passionate team dedicated to delivering reliability, end-to-end security, and new possibilities for digital trust at both population and enterprise scale.
