Innovating to tackle global challenges

Privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs) have the potential to help us devise data-driven, innovative solutions to tackle the most pressing global societal challenges we're facing, while preserving citizens’ fundamental right to privacy, which constitutes a foundation for democratic societies. 

By enabling organisations to share and collaboratively analyse sensitive data in a privacy-preserving manner, PETs open up unprecedented opportunities to harness the power of data through innovative and trustworthy applications.

UK-US collaboration

That’s why the U.K. and U.S. governments are delivering a set of prize challenges - announced at the Summit for Democracy in December 2021 - to unleash the potential of these democracy-affirming technologies.
