The Problem

Turing Certs addresses the challenge of global skills mobility in the face of wars and natural disasters. We assist governments, educational institutions, businesses, and individuals in overcoming inefficient cross-border recognition and verification, fostering equal access to opportunities.

The Solution

Turing Certs offers a verifiable credential platform built on blockchain and global standards like OpenID4VC, enabling instant, tamper-proof, and privacy-preserving digital identity and document verification across borders. It enables secure, cross-border use of credentials through global standards like W3C, OpenID4VC, and SD-JWT. These credentials are tamper-proof, protected by blockchain and digital signatures. A single wallet lets you manage all your personal and professional IDs, with GDPR-compliant privacy controls and four-layer access management. Plus, issuing and verifying credentials takes just minutes instead of weeks.

How it works?

  • Step 1. Issue: A trusted institution (e.g., university, government) uses Turing Certs to issue a digital credential or identity to a user.
  • Step 2. Secure Storage: The credential is stored in the user’s personal digital identity wallet, encrypted and protected by IOTA blockchain.
  • Step 3. Standard Compliance: Credentials follow international standards (W3C VC, OpenID4VC), ensuring global compatibility and interoperability.
  • Step 4. Controlled Sharing: Users can share their credentials securely with one-click access, using fine-grained privacy controls.
  • Step 5. Instant Verification: Verifiers (e.g., employers, schools) can instantly confirm authenticity via the Turing platform without manual checks.
  • Step 6. Immutable Record keeping: Every issuance and verification is recorded immutably, ensuring full traceability and preventing fraud.

Bridging the digital divide

Turing Certs simplifies identity access for underserved populations, allowing individuals to securely manage and verify their identities without needing to be physically present. By enabling secure digital document handling and encouraging paperless processes, it provides cost-effective, globally accessible services that empower everyone to participate in the digital economy.

Impact and highlights

  • Turing Certs digitized 4.8 million Renewable Energy Certificates in Taiwan enhancing trust in Taiwan's green energy market and setting a national standard for transparent, efficient energy certification.
  • Collaborated with WHO and PMNCH to deliver tamper-proof certificates to over 12,000 international volunteers in 150 countries
  • Chosen by the Taiwan Ministry of Digital Affairs to develop Turing Facts—digitizing and verifying financial and operational records for 1.6 million SMEs.
  • Recognized by the UN for contributing to digital trust, sustainability, and data privacy.
  • Won multiple international awards, including APICTA, Draper University Top 3, and Tokyo Metro Government Special Prize.
  • Built partnerships with top universities like Harvard, UC Berkeley, and institutions across Asia and Europe to secure and streamline academic credentialing.
  • Plans for expansion

    Following the recent raise of over 3 million USD, Turing Space plans to drive R&D in digital identity infrastructure, technology development, talent acquisition, market expansion and fuel expansion across Taiwan, Japan, and Europe, deepening global partnerships and advancing its mission to build a borderless digital trust network. In Europe, Turing Space is deepening partnerships through initiatives such as the Decentralized Identifier (DID) and Verifiable Credentials (VC) solutions, targeting major enterprises in Switzerland, UK, and the Netherlands to expand its EU footprint. With consolidated operations in Japan and Taiwan, the launch of its new Dutch office, and a strong alliance with Dai Nippon Printing (DNP) through the Asia Pacific Digital Identity Consortium (APDI), Turing Space is positioning itself as a key technology integrator.
