Trust by Design — Building Privacy-Preserving Infrastructure for the Next Digital Economy

Digital money, AI and identity systems are advancing quickly, but public trust often lags. A central driver of resistance is fear these tools become systems of surveillance and control especially when safeguards & user agency are weak. 

This session brings central banks, commercial banks, governments, infrastructure providers and deep tech leaders together to define a practical middle path: infrastructure that delivers security, fraud reduction, integrity and innovation without mass tracking or data extraction. Participants examine concrete architectures such as data minimization, selective disclosure, privacy-preserving compliance and independent oversight.
