DTLab brings people, organizations and governments together to tackle the big issues involved in the creation of safe, seamless and secure digital credentials in Canada.
Our unbiased team of specialists tests and experiments with governance and technology models designed to leverage digital credentials in Canadians’ day-to-day lives. Our work supports efforts to ensure various solutions work across the country and internationally.
We believe the best solutions will require a collaborative approach with multiple participants across the economy and we’re committed to facilitating just that.
