DIGITALEUROPE Event

Digital Defence and European Competitiveness

Strengthening Europe’s Competitiveness through Digital Defence

DIGITALEUROPE and the Brussels Institute for Geopolitics, together with the Danish Presidency of the Council of the EU, will host a high-level panel at DIGITALEUROPE’s Brussels office. Against the backdrop of shifting global dynamics and mounting security challenges, the discussion will examine how Europe can scale its digital defence-industrial base to reinforce resilience and boost competitiveness.

Gathering leaders from EU institutions, national governments, and industry, the panel will tackle key issues such as joint procurement, interoperability, dual-use technologies, and battlefield lessons from Ukraine to help shape Europe’s strategic edge in the decade ahead.

Objectives

How to protect Europe’s critical infrastructure from rapidly evolving threats;

Opportunities for enhanced EU-level cooperation and coordinated investment to accelerate dual-use capabilities in Europe and address the scale and interoperability challenges faced by Europe’s defence industries;
