In times of crisis, societies face not only physical threats but also waves of misinformation that undermine trust and democratic stability. Protecting data, ensuring cybersecurity, and safeguarding European values are now essential pillars of resilience. This event brings together researchers and innovators to explore how we can strengthen democracy while remaining competitive in a rapidly shifting global landscape. By fostering dialogue on crisis preparedness, social trust, and dual-use technologies, we aim to balance openness with security. Join us to shape a future where resilience, competitiveness, and European values reinforce each other.
