Peter Altmann, Vice President Mobility and Travel Protection at Amadeus, explores how digital identity technologies, including upcoming EU digital identity initiatives, can reshape the end-to-end travel cycle. Using mobility as a central use case, he illustrates how identity-driven architectures can reduce friction across the travel journey, while improving trust and operational efficiency. The session highlights why digital identity is becoming a strategic enabler for seamless journeys, trusted data exchange, and new forms of value creation across the global travel ecosystem.
