Cybersec Forum 2023 | CYBERSEC - European Cybersecurity Forum | 20 June 2023 | Katowice International Conference Centre, plac Sławika i Antalla 1, 40-163 Katowice, Poland

The year 2022, scarred by brutal and unprecedented aggression on Ukraine, has shown us the power of unity and the need for increased resilience. As we look into the future, we draw valuable lessons from the past. Which is why our actions in 2023 will be guided by the leitmotif Partnerships for Cyber Resilience.

We Take Another Step Forward in Our Mission to Bring the Global Cyber Community Together, to Turn Words Into Actions. Together with Public sector officials, members of the civil society, and last but not least – the private sector companies – we will foster stronger partnerships for cyber resilience.
