New partnership accelerates deployment of privacy-first digital identity solutions and VAR distribution across Thailand & Southeast Asia
BANGKOK, Thailand and MELBOURNE Australia, Jan. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ShareRing, a global leader in self-sovereign digital identity technology and blockchain-powered verification solutions, today announced the acquisition of a 25% equity stake in Transformational, a premier Thailand-based digital transformation specialist. In tandem with the investment, ShareRing and Transformational have signed a Value Added Reseller (VAR) Agreement, positioning Transformational as a key distributor of ShareRing's privacy-first Digital Identity SDK and enterprise blockchain solutions across Thailand and the broader Southeast Asian market.
Transformational, founded in 2020, delivers strategy-to-execution digital transformation services for corporate and government clients across sectors, including retail, health, insurance, FMCG, and public services, helping organisations modernise legacy systems and adopt future-ready tech architectures.
Strategic Synergy to Support National Digital Identity Initiatives
The partnership comes at a pivotal moment for Thailand's digital infrastructure evolution, as the country accelerates efforts to standardise interoperable identity frameworks and blockchain-enabled verification services. Public/private partnerships and emerging frameworks in Thailand are advancing decentralized digital identity adoption in both government and financial sectors.
Tim Bos, Founder and co-CEO of ShareRing, said:
"This investment and alliance with Transformational marks a significant milestone in ShareRing's mission to scale self-sovereign identity utility across Southeast Asia. Ariya and his team's deep regional expertise and enterprise relationships enhance our ability to deliver high-assurance identity solutions at institutional and national levels.

"Identity is the foundation of the digital economy, yet verification friction and data security remain core challenges for businesses and regulators alike. Our partnership with ShareRing enables us to deliver an SSI based trust layer that creates verifiable Digital Twins of official credentials, from national IDs to professional licenses. This empowers instant, secure onboarding and data ownership for users, while ensuring ecosystem compliance with Thai regulatory standards."
