Tuesday and Wednesday I was at the Research and Education Trust & Identity Town hall meeting in Stockholm, Sweden, kindly hosted by SUNET.

Reflecting on the this meeting, as a @SURF T&I member, the @geant project work package leader for #eduGAIN, and member of the #REFEDS steering group, it was an good event that blended the best of all my professional worlds, where
I presented the status and future of SURF T&I services, being #SURFconext, #eduID, #SRAM and #SURFsecureID.

The next #eduGAIN & #REFEDS Town Hall will take place in Stockholm, Sweden on 10-11 October.

Join the event to catch up with colleagues from across the community & to find out about the latest developments in the #Trust & #Identity space.
