Elon Musk & the cyber space race: How to dodge missiles as a Benelux organisation during a geopolitical rollercoaster

Europe watched from the sidelines as the world rapidly evolved in the face of digital and geopolitical shifts. In this fast-paced era, traditional democracies with slow decision-making processes often find themselves at a disadvantage—something that is becoming increasingly evident for Belgium and the broader Benelux region. This session’s title perfectly captures the current dynamics while raising the question: is there still a way to turn the tide?

Experts predict that the next 6 to 24 months will bring crucial changes, with escalating cyber threats, rigid decision-making structures, and cyber intelligence that sometimes ends up in the wrong hands.

To help organisations in the Benelux stay ahead, we aim to provide valuable insights and tools on cyber security and strategic flexibility. The goal? To take proactive measures and avoid being caught on the geopolitical sidelines.
