Athumi and Inrupt have renewed their partnership with a multi-year commitment in order to meet the demand for B2B adoption of Solid Pods in Flanders. The Cronos Groep also reaffirms its commitment to Solid and Athumi’s success by continuing to provide the managed services and support for Athumi’s Pod platform.
Athumi’s Pod offering enables companies to get their customers' consent to access personal data in order to provide better and more personalized services. Personal datastores build trust by giving consumers control over their data, while also giving companies the opportunity to access premium, first-party data.
Inrupt and Athumi, then the Data Utility Company, announced their intention to build a Solid Pod offering for citizens and businesses in 2021. After extensive development and testing, the Solid platform was launched in May 2023 featuring a first use case to share diploma data together with HR service provider Randstad.
Since then, Athumi has fielded interest from key industries like employment agencies, education, energy, and healthcare. Most recently, Athumi announced its Solid Pod platform will support the 5 major Dutch media companies in their mission to provide personal data vaults for all media consumers in the Netherlands.
