During this post-event wrap-up, we discuss the main takeaways from the keynote presentations, panel conversations, and hallway chats. The primary topics are:

  • Cross-country collaboration for innovation, security intelligence, and coordinated response

  • The need for continued investment in cyber talent

Ultimately, we get into the complicated discussion about what Ireland's cyber responsibilities are in the European and Global economies, given the country's drive to be the central hub for European technologies and push to draw multinationals from the US and beyond.

It's a quick listen, but one worth popping on a set of earphones.
