Completion of Eurostars3 Project – Identity on Distributed Ledgers

Completion of Eurostars3 Project – Identity on Distributed Ledgers

in May 25, 2025

In the context of our firm’s strong focus towards future applications and new product launches, the firm successfully led and supported a pioneering RegTech project funded under the European Union’s Eurostars3 Programme (co-funded by the European Commission and the Research and Innovation Foundation of Cyprus), with title ID2L: Identity on Distributed Ledgers. 

Following 24 months of intense collaboration with stakeholders, market leaders and other relevant parties, the project has been successfully completed and we are now pleased to explore the new go-to-market opportunities for the end deliverable of the Project – the Trustnexus platform.

The platform introduces a novel digital KYC (Know Your Customer) and KYB (Know Your Business) platform based on blockchain technology and AI. It shifts data authorization flow back to individuals and establishes a mutual approach for KYC checks and data sharing across industries. This comprehensive solution minimizes the risk of financial crime, puts data management in the hands of end-users, and improves accuracy and reduces compliance costs.

Trustnexus is a portal that simplifies access to services in ways that extend beyond simple onboarding and KYC. Operating via a federated community network of peer-verification, it creates a marketplace of services in a way that is easy, fast and secure for everyone involved. This novel approach opens the gateways to the future of KYC and e-identities, redefining onboarding with federated assurance and interoperability. With Trustnexus, users can create their own e-ID, manage your data, and decide who gets access to their personal data — no more, no less.

The solution is not just a tool; it’s a movement toward user empowerment, federated assurance, and interoperability. Trustnexus shifts control of data, to data owners, who decide to share uploaded information with specific providers in order to gain access to their services. At any point in time, users know what they have shared and with whom, and are free to revoke that consent.

The core values and principles upon which the solution is built are:

Pioneering Interoperability
A unified hub offering instant access to integrated third-party services. The Trustnexus portal streamlines KYC/KYB workflows across providers. Users gain access a marketplace of services with just one click.

Risk Intelligence 
The Trustnexus portal provides a federated ecosystem of four-eye compliance through dual level accountability. It ensures that different compliance teams review user profiles, minimizing risk and human errors. At the same time, users built by aggregating cross-referencing global registry data, AI driven insights, and watchlists. Trustnexus reduces false positives through holistic analysis, surpassing siloed or single-source solutions. This approach combines rigorous oversight with cross-functional transparency, setting a higher standard for risk management.
User Empowerment
Granular, real-time control over data-sharing consent for individual and businesses. Users dynamically approve or revoke access per service provider, exceeding basic personal data management tools to prioritize transparency and regulatory alignment.
Ongoing Monitoring
Real-time risk detection powered by machine learning, flagging critical and relevant changes instantly (e.g. PEPs and sanctions). Trustnexus moves beyond static reviews to dynamic surveillance aligned with evolving threats.
Agility
Global regulatory agility is achieved through workflows supported for hundreds of jurisdictions, offering global support and region-specific compliance. This ensures adherence to local AML and KYC/KYB laws while scaling seamlessly across borders.
User Friendliness
Simple UI and smooth processes in an application built with users in mind. User friendly features ensure fast onboarding and stress-free browsing and access to services.
We are excited to soon present this solution to the market, and we remain available to discuss how we can be of value to your business.
