This session will explore how geopolitical fragmentation, energy security dynamics, and rapid advances in AI are reshaping the global investment landscape, with a particular focus on Iberia and Central & Eastern Europe (CEE). As resilience becomes a core investment lens, capital is increasingly flowing into the intersection of data infrastructure, cybersecurity, and dual-use technologies. The discussion will examine where risks are intensifying—and where differentiated opportunities are emerging—offering insights into how investors can navigate uncertainty, protect critical assets, and capture value in an increasingly complex, security-driven environment. We are delighted to host the event at the beautiful Uppery Club in Málaga.
