Lim joined the event and highlighted the transformative power of this secure digital identity solution: "This initiative will transform all sectors of our economy by reducing identity fraud and cybercrime to protect our digital future, revolutionizing public administration through less bureaucracy and greater transparency, accelerating financial inclusion by providing millions of unbanked citizens access to banking services and digital payments, facilitating student identification, online learning, and academic verification in education, and enabling better healthcare access with secure medical records.” With validation efforts underway, Trident and the DRC government are set to deploy a secure, inclusive digital identity system that promises transformative opportunities for Congolese citizens, delivering significant impact such as the creation of over 30,000 direct and indirect jobs in digital technology, cybersecurity, administration, and services; a 40% increase in financial inclusion, enabling millions to access banking and digital services; a 50% reduction in administrative delays to enhance the efficiency and accessibility of public services; stimulation of economic growth through facilitated cross-border trade and investment; and, improved social protection and public services via secure digital identification for healthcare, education, and social assistance.
At the event, Minister Kibassa detailed the government’s commitment to driving the initiative forward, including embedding the technology into public and private services, launching a nationwide awareness and training program, enhancing technological infrastructure with sovereign cloud systems and secure data centers, and promoting local innovation by empowering startups and digital stakeholders to strengthen the digital ecosystem.
