This time, we will focus on innovation in cybersecurity companies. Representatives from research institutions will take the stage to share their insights — their work, development of emerging technologies, and participation in various projects are all rooted in a science-based approach. What exactly this means and what are the possibilities to collaborate with research institutions for Estonian cybersecurity companies, will be discussed on May 15th.

List of speakers (18:00-19:00):

• Anni Aleksandrov (Expert-Coordinator, RIA) – Accelerate Your Cybersecurity Solutions with RIA Innovation Funding
• Heisi Kurig, PhD (Head of Institute of Computer Science, University of Tartu) – Collaboration with Universities as a Catalyst for Innovation in the Cyber Domain
• Dan Bogdanov (Chief Scientific Officer, Cybernetica) – Would you like to be known for how secure your product is?
