Navigating Frontier AI, Digital Sovereignty, and Cyber Resilience in a Fragmented World

Join Zscaler for an exclusive roundtable lunch on the growing connection between frontier AI, cybersecurity, and digital sovereignty. As advanced AI models reshape the cyber landscape, they are also raising urgent questions about resilience, control, and technological dependency.

Moderated by Casper Klynge, Zscaler’s VP & Head of Government Partnerships & Public Policy EMEA, this session will explore how organisations and policymakers should respond as AI accelerates both defensive capabilities and cyber risk. What does digital sovereignty mean in practice in an age of frontier AI? How can Europe strengthen resilience while preserving openness, innovation, and trusted partnerships? And what role should industry play in helping operationalise sovereignty in real terms?

The discussion will examine how architecture, policy, and public-private cooperation must evolve together to address a more volatile and fast-moving threat environment. It will also consider how organisations can reduce strategic dependency, strengthen business continuity, and make more deliberate choices about the technologies and partners they rely on.

Discussion themes:

• Frontier AI and the changing cybersecurity equation
• Digital sovereignty as a resilience and control issue
• Reducing strategic dependency while preserving innovation
• The role of Zero Trust architecture in limiting exposure and strengthening continuity
• Public-private cooperation in a more contested geopolitical environment
• Building the right policy and regulatory conditions for trusted digital infrastructure

This session is by invitation only and places are limited. If you'd like to express your interest in attending, please get in touch info@digital-government.co.uk.
