OpenID Foundation Liaisons
The OpenID Foundation (OIDF) works collaboratively with a diverse network of global partners, industry consortia, standards bodies, and government initiatives to advance secure, interoperable digital identity technologies. Through formal memoranda of understanding (MOUs), liaison agreements, and ongoing cooperation, OIDF fosters alignment and shared progress across the identity ecosystem. These strategic relationships help drive innovation, promote best practices, and ensure that OpenID and related specifications meet the needs of developers, implementers, and users worldwide.
