Lead Generation for Qiy Foundation

March 14, 2019

The philosophy of the Qiy Foundation is that people should have control over their personal data. NextSales supports this idea and will leverage its NextSales Ambassador Network to recruit new members for the Qiy Foundation.

Supporting SDGs - Qiy Foundation

For years, the Qiy Foundation has been working with a growing number of organizations to develop an independent system that allows individuals to control their data: The Qiy scheme! The Qiy scheme consists of independent governance, an open standard and its rules. In this way, the Qiy scheme anticipates the changing role of Governments and expectations of the individual in the online digital world, taking into account recent European legislative changes in the field of data protection. The work of the Qiy Foundation is made possible by annual membership contributions from organizations in the public and private sector.

About Qiy Foundation

The philosophy of the Qiy Foundation is that people should have control over their personal data. The infrastructure based on the Qiy standard has been live as a certified reference implementation for several years. With the support of many large private and public organizations, the Qiy Foundation is working on a scheme for the exchange of personal data under the control of the individual. The first version of the scheme was launched on 5 January 2015 and is open to parties to complete roles in the scheme.

Qiy Trust Principles

The Qiy Trust principles define the rights of the individual when using the Qiy scheme to exchange data with other parties. All parties that provide services through the infrastructure on the basis of the Qiy scheme must stick to these rules.

Companies such as ABN Amro, Equens, ICS Cards, ING, Intrasurance Group, Ministry of Economic Affairs, NVVB (Dutch Society for Civil Affairs), RTL Nederland, SIDN, SVB and Vodafone Ziggo are already part of the Qiy coalition.

What is the Qiy scheme?

The Qiy scheme is a set of agreements that include all the necessary topics needed to provide a satisfactory user experience to all end users.

Similar challenges have been addressed in the organization of other global markets, including the telecom and payment markets. Key in promoting fragmented markets is a form of cooperation between competing parties. The form of such cooperation is often referred to as a ‘scheme’.

Well-known examples of schemes in two-sided markets are credit cards (Visa, MasterCard), Internet (ICann) and GSM for mobile telephony.

Why do we need a scheme?

The current fragmentation of personal data is a clear example of a growing number of challenges: every individual has data in many places and most organizations manage data from many people.

Qiy Foundation and NextSales

The Qiy Foundation wants to expand the number of participants and has asked NextSales for support. NextSales supports Sustainability and the SDGs by working “pro bono” or at a reduced rate.

The Enduring Leader

The leader’s goal is not only to last, but to endure. We rightly admire things that last. We may live in a culture of instant gratification and ever – shortening attention spans, but we still know enough, to admire what endures.
