Where Cybersecurity Leaders Connect and Decide What’s Next

This is not a typical conference.

Next IT Security Benelux is an exclusive gathering of cybersecurity decision-makers from across the Benelux region, designed for honest conversations, practical insights, and meaningful networking — free from vendor-driven presentations and unnecessary distractions.

Every conversation is intentional. Every connection is relevant.
This is where cybersecurity leaders meet to exchange insights that actually matter.

Next IT Security — Benelux

Agenda

Day 01
November 2024

Hilton, Amsterdam

Selected as the official venue for Next IT Security Amsterdam, Hilton offers a setting that supports privacy, discretion and high-level interaction.

 

Known as the site of John and Yoko’s ‘bed-in’ protest, our canal-side hotel is in one of the city’s quieter neighborhoods. We’re one km from the Museumplein, home to the Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum, and our bike rentals make exploring easy. Enjoy Italian cuisine at Roberto’s, cocktails at Half Moon Lounge, and free access to our partnering gym. 

Trusted by Cybersecurity Leaders

Our partners don’t just attend — they lead the conversation.

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.

DACH Edition

DACH Edition

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.
