Digital Sovereignty in the Age of (T)reason? Defining sovereignty in an uncertain world

Digital sovereignty is key to our future competitiveness. Between technological dependency, data sovereignty, and AI-driven transformation lies a unique opportunity to shape our digital future on our own terms. But who defines the rules — governments, corporations, or society itself?

In collaboration with Pivot Economics, we warmly invite you to our official side event of the Munich Cyber Security Conference (MCSC), where we will explore this critical topic. Under the title “Digital Sovereignty in the Age of (T)reason?”, industry leaders, policy experts, scientists, technologists, and creative thinkers will discuss how organizations can maintain their digital sovereignty while navigating global interconnectivity, regulatory demands and technological dependencies. This is a rare opportunity to connect perspectives that rarely converge directly.

The Key Questions

Our panel discussion will address the challenges shaping digital sovereignty in a connected world:

• How can we preserve digital sovereignty while maintaining global connectivity?
• How much technological dependency is unavoidable — and what are the consequences?
• Who should define the rules — governments, corporations, or society itself?

Exciting speakers will be announced soon, stay tuned!
