ATLANTA, GA, July 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trust Stamp (Nasdaq: IDAI), today announced that its Maltese subsidiary, Trust Stamp Malta Limited, has been selected as a direct participant in the Important Project of Common European Interest on Advanced Semiconductor Technologies (IPCEI AST), with the support of Malta Enterprise. The IPCEI AST is a major, coordinated European initiative backed by participating EU Member States and their national authorities, with the objective of strengthening Europe's sovereignty, security and resilience across the advanced semiconductor value chain. Bringing together industry and research participants from across the EU, it is designed to accelerate the development and first industrial deployment of next-generation chip technologies. IPCEI is one of the EU's principal instruments for funding strategic technologies; its predecessor in microelectronics, IPCEI ME/CT, mobilised up to €8.1 billion in public funding across fourteen Member States. The overall funding envelope for the Advanced Semiconductor Technologies wave is still being finalised. Trust Stamp's selection positions its privacy-first identity technology within this strategic effort by binding the identity of a device to a verified human identity, so that critical hardware can be trusted to operate only in authorised hands. This work will build on Trust Stamp's patented approach to irreversible biometric tokenization, which protects personal data while enabling strong, privacy-preserving authentication. Trust Stamp's participation is anchored by two cooperation agreements planned to run over the project period (2027 - 2032), subject to formal approval: Trust Stamp's participation in the program has been made possible with the support of Malta Enterprise, Malta's national economic development agency, which coordinates and champions Malta's involvement in the IPCEI AST. Malta Enterprise's backing reflects a shared commitment to position Malta and its innovators within Europe's most strategic technology programmes, and to build a local ecosystem spanning industry and academic partners around advanced semiconductor and secure-identity technology.
