“Meet the People of Aptitude” introduces the experts and innovators working behind the Aptitude project, one of Europe’s large-scale pilots testing the European Digital Identity Wallet in real-life conditions.
In this interview, we meet Elzbieta Wojtowicz, who leads Mobile Vehicle Registration Certificate at Aptitude. Her work focuses on making it possible for drivers across Europe to store their vehicle registration certificate securely in their digital wallet and use it seamlessly across borders. From coordinating national requirements to testing new technologies, Elzbieta is working to make increased mobility a reality for every European driver.
What is the main role of Mobile Vehicle Registration Certificate within the Aptitude project?
“My main role is to lead the work on the mobile vehicle registration certificate, to coordinate the discussion about it and also the use case specification and the pilot project. Within this pilot we would like to test different technologies and processes that could help us implement the mobile vehicle registration certificate, with the goal of having it in the European Digital Identity Wallet.”
What are the main challenges in your area of responsibility?
“The main challenge is to coordinate the discussion about the mobile vehicle registration certificate and to collect all the requirements from the countries what kind of data they would like to have in this certificate. Then we need to agree on the baseline and additional scenarios that we would like to test.”
What benefits does the mobile vehicle registration certificate bring for drivers?
“The main benefit will be the possibility to travel all over Europe with a mobile vehicle registration certificate. You will be able to rent a car or buy a parking subscription in a different country. This increased mobility will be the main benefit.”
The Aptitude project brings together partners from 12 EU Member States and Ukraine to test the European Digital Identity Wallet in real-life scenarios such as travel, payments and digital services. The goal is to make digital identity secure, trusted and citizen-controlled, while ensuring services can work seamlessly across borders.
