Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web and co-founder of inrupt, visited Seoul to receive the prestigious Seoul Peace Prize. During his visit, Sakak played a key role as the event host, coordinating engagements between Berners-Lee and major South Korean public institutions such as the Korea Data Agency and the Korea Internet & Security Agency.
The event centered around the critical topic of personal data sovereignty and control, an issue that aligns closely with Sakak's mission. During the discussions, Tim Berners-Lee strongly resonated with Sakak’s vision of returning control of personal data back to individuals, a shared philosophy that was highlighted in his long-standing advocacy for decentralized web solutions.
A private discussion between Berners-Lee and Sakak leadership explored future opportunities for collaboration. Both parties discussed strategies for empowering individuals with greater data control, reinforcing the vision that underpins Sakak's CANDiY platform, a solution designed to give users full control over how their data is used.
GeonGyu Bae, CEO of Sakak, remarked, "It was an honor to host Sir Tim Berners-Lee and facilitate discussions with key stakeholders in South Korea's public data sectors. Our mutual vision for data empowerment through decentralized technologies is the foundation of future collaboration."
The event further solidified Sakak’s commitment to establishing partnerships that support ethical, transparent, and user-centric data practices, and strengthened ties with public institutions that share the same goals.
