Next IT Security Nordics

Where Cybersecurity Leaders Connect and Decide What’s Next

This is not a typical conference.

Next IT Security Stockholm brings together a carefully selected group of cybersecurity leaders to share real experiences, challenge ideas and build meaningful connections — without noise, without sales pitches, and without wasted time.

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

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.
