About

In response to the growing threat of cybercrime, heightened social protests, and the war in Ukraine – the first conventional war with a cyber battlefield, Europe must intensify its efforts to protect itself in cyberspace. This requires capabilities and skills at the state level for defense, resilience, and the establishment of deterrence. The latter can be achieved by developing offensive capabilities both at the EU and individual country levels.

This summit aims to collaboratively examine how these goals can be met, drawing from the lessons learned from Israel.

The format will include interactive panels (with audience Q&A) and Round tables in order to enable a dialogue between the participants & speakers.
