As part of the virtual 39th meeting of the Leibniz-Gemeinschaft Working Group, Johanna Schaller, a research assistant at the Forschungsstelle Recht im DFN, gave a presentation on electronic signatures and seals on Thursday 12 May 2022. The lecture included an overview of the various technical and legal designs of electronic signatures. In particular, the handling of the qualified signature was the focus of attention.
In the ensuing lively discussion among the almost 100 participants, the practical implementation of signatures was discussed in many different ways in addition to reports on experiences.
The ITM would like to thank the Leibniz-Gemeinschaft for its kind invitation and the positive feedback!
