Dear ICTLuxembourg esteemed community and dear guests,

 

ICTLuxembourg is delighted to invite you to our Event of the Year, a unique and never seen in Luxembourg momentum that brings together industry leaders, innovators, policy-makers, and strategic thinkers to explore the future of AI, power and democracy, the true Europe’s digital next leap!

Get ready for a powerful exploration of Europe’s digital future?

We’re entering an era where technology is entirely reshaping how we live, work, and connect. As this acceleration unfolds, a new priority emerges: ensuring that AI, tech and daily interactions remains trustworthy, consistent, and anchored in our democratic ideals.

With the exceptional keynote of Bruce Schneier

 

 

We are proud to have invited Bruce Schneier, one of the world’s most visionary security and tech thinkers, celebrated for transforming complex technological challenges into bold ideas that shape our digital future. A Fellow at the Berkman Klein Center and Lecturer at the Harvard Kennedy School, Bruce Schneier challenges global leaders to rethink how technology, power, and trust intersect.

Join us for an inspiring event that dives into the opportunities ahead, and the responsibility we share in building a future where technology strengthens our values rather than challenges them.
