Internet Identity Workshop

The next #IIW (#41) is coming up October 21 - 23, 2025 Registration Open https://iiw41.eventbrite.com The Internet Identity Workshop has been finding, probing and solving identity problems twice every year since 2005. Every IIW moves topics, code and projects downfield. Name an identity topic and it’s likely that more substantial discussion and work has been done on it at IIW than at any other conference. That’s because IIW is an Open Space unConference. We have no speakers, no keynotes, no panels. All sessions are breakouts, and the topics are chosen and led by participants. And identity is just a starting point. Many other topics come up and move forward as well. In the last few IIWs, hot topics have included personal clouds, privacy, data liberation, verifiable claims, decentralized identifiers, transparency, VRM, the Indie Web, the Internet of Things, the Semantic Web, trust frameworks, free and open devices and much more. We also make time and space available for demos. IIW is cheap, as conferences go. ROI is also maximized by absence of company-driven agendas. Corporate participation is by humble sponsors who like what IIW does for the world — and to supply free meals each day and an all-day espresso bar. IIW takes place over three days every Spring and Fall at the Computer History Museum in Mountain View. Register now for IIW, and do it soon because it’s likely to fill up. IIW is at its heart a participatory conference, through dozens of sessions, called and convened by participants, lunches, and two evening meals (all included in ticket) you’ll have plenty of chances to exchange ideas and make new professional connections. @IDWorkshop IIW Foundation dba Internet Identity Workshop IIW Foundation is 501(c)3 charity under rules of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service
