Amsterdam works best from the water and from above, so that’s how we’re doing it. A private canal cruise leads into dinner on one of the city’s best rooftops — a tightly curated table of C-suite cyber minds, kept deliberately small so every conversation counts.

Frankfurt earned the nickname “Mainhattan” for a skyline that rivals Manhattan’s. Dinner sits in the financial district with towers lit on every side, seating C-suite cyber minds alongside the day’s keynote speakers — no stage between you, just the conversation continuing.

Located in the heart of Frankfurt, Logenhaus zur Einigkeit is a distinguished historic venue combining elegant architecture with a unique atmosphere. The lodge was founded in 1742, while the present building was completed in 1896.

Its centrepiece is an impressive 220 m² Rococo-style ballroom featuring Louis XV-inspired details, a grand stage and a concert piano. Together with its elegant foyer and additional event spaces, the venue provides an exceptional setting for conferences, presentations and professional networking.
