About Partisia

Building the infrastructure for digital trust.

The world is entering a new era of digital identity. Partisia was founded to answer its hardest question: verify information with certainty, without collecting, storing, and exposing unnecessary personal data.

  • Decentralized Identity
  • Verifiable Credentials
  • Multi-Party Computation
  • Zero-Knowledge Proofs
  • Digital Wallets

Our mission

Verify what matters, without exposing what doesn't.

Individuals should stay in control of their personal data, while organisations still meet compliance requirements, establish trust, and deliver seamless experiences.

Through decentralised identity, verifiable credentials, and privacy-enhancing technologies, organisations move from collecting and storing personal data to verifying only the facts they need.

How it works

From data collection to data verification.

For decades, digital services have collected and stored ever more personal information. There is a better way: verify only what you actually need.

Is this person over 18?

Prove a single attribute without revealing a date of birth or a full ID document.

Is this visitor authorised to enter?

Confirm access rights from a verifiable credential, not a copied identity document.

Is this professional credential valid?

Check authenticity and validity without contacting the original issuer.

Is this customer eligible for a service?

Verify eligibility while the underlying personal data stays with the user.

Our DNA

Powered by world-leading cryptography.

Partisia was founded by pioneers in Multi-Party Computation, a breakthrough that lets computation and verification happen directly on encrypted data. Spun out of Aarhus University, our team has spent more than three decades turning advanced cryptographic research into real-world systems used by governments, financial institutions, and enterprises.

Our story

From a research breakthrough to digital-trust infrastructure.

  1. 1990s

    Research roots

    Multi-Party Computation moves from theory toward practice at Aarhus University, led by co-founder Prof. Ivan Damgård, a pioneer of the field.

  2. 2018

    Partisia is founded

    Partisia Applications ApS is founded in Aarhus, Denmark, to bring privacy-preserving verification to real-world organisations.

Where it shows up

Ready for the wallet era.

National wallets, AltID, and the European Digital Identity Wallet are creating an ecosystem where people carry trusted credentials on their own devices. Partisia helps organisations act on them.

Access control

VisitorPass

Digital visitor management and access control powered by verifiable credentials.

Age proof

AgeVerify

Privacy-preserving age verification for retail, hospitality, events, and digital services.

Privacy by design

Privacy is not a feature. It's a design principle.

Our solutions minimise data exposure and support compliance with evolving European regulations. By verifying claims instead of sharing personal information, organisations reduce risk while improving the user experience.

Compliant
GDPR
General Data Protection Regulation

Native data minimisation. We don't hold what we don't need.

Compliant
NIS2
Network and Information Security Directive

Built for the operators of essential and important services.

Compliant
eIDAS 2.0
EU electronic identification framework

Ready for the Digital Identity Wallet rollout. Optional, not required.

The future of trust.
Let's build it together.

The next generation of digital services will be built on verified information, not collected data. Partisia is building the infrastructure that makes that future possible.
