Identity Valley's Challenge
Identity Valley, a non-profit organisation, is dedicated to promoting a responsible and human-centered digitalisation. With the rapidly evolving digital landscape, the organisation faces the complex task of monitoring EU policy developments across multiple domains, including digital accessibility, privacy, cybersecurity, data governance, and artificial intelligence.
Beyond monitoring, Identity Valley is undertaking an ambitious project to develop a framework that helps organisations not only comply with EU law but exceed standard requirements in these critical areas. This necessitates a comprehensive understanding of policy discussions, stakeholder positions, and regulatory developments.
"The digital policy landscape is vast and constantly evolving," explains Ferdinand Ferroli, Director Policy & Research at Identity Valley. "To develop a meaningful framework, we need to synthesize information from multiple sources – from, for example, the European Parliament, European Data Protection Supervisor and European Court of Justice rulings to stakeholder opinions.”
Solution
The search for a solution that could handle the complexity of policy monitoring and analysis led Identity Valley to SAVOIRR. The platform emerged as the ideal tool to organise, discover, and stay current with the multifaceted aspects of EU digital policy development.
SAVOIRR's capabilities aligned perfectly with Identity Valley's need to:
- Track legislative developments across multiple digital domains
- Monitor and analyse stakeholder positions
- Discover all relevant documents on a certain topic
Result
The implementation of SAVOIRR has transformed how Identity Valley approaches policy monitoring and their framework development. The platform serves as a central hub for gathering the diverse perspectives and regulatory developments that inform their work.
"SAVOIRR has become a very useful enabler in our mission to promote responsible digitalisation," explains the policy team. "The platform helps us maintain a comprehensive view of the policy landscape while identifying emerging trends and potential gaps."
The impact is particularly evident in the development of their framework, where SAVOIRR enables the team to:
- Quickly identify relevant policy developments
- Track the evolution of digital policy discussions
- Analyse stakeholder feedback and concerns
- Monitor regulatory compliance requirements
- Identify opportunities for organisations to exceed standard requirements
"Developing guidance for organisations to go beyond basic compliance requires a deep understanding of both current requirements and emerging best practices," notes the team. "SAVOIRR provides us with the comprehensive insight we need to create a crucial part of our responsible digitalisation framework."
By streamlining the policy monitoring process, SAVOIRR has enabled Identity Valley to focus more resources on their core deliverables: developing, validating and piloting a practical framework that helps organisations implement more responsible and human-centered digital practices.
