That's a wrap on BCC2026.
Three days in Bucharest: we defined the stakes, followed the threats in motion and looked at the partnerships, investment and people who will build what comes next.
Three days. 100+ speakers. One shared goal: a more secure digital Europe.
Europe is short of nearly 300,000 cybersecurity professionals.
This is not mainly a technology problem. It is about people, culture and education.
The most important question of BCC2026: who will build the secure digital Europe we need?
On stage:
Dragos Ionica, Offensive Security Lead, Deloitte Romania
Fabio Di Franco, Cybersecurity Expert, ENISA
Francesco Zacchetti, Country Manager, Adecco Romania
Svetlana Schuster, Acting Head of Unit, European Commission
David Timis, Senior Fellow in AI Governance, Global Governance Institute

Europe is one of the most regulated cybersecurity markets in the world, and one of the most under-invested.
Panel 10 examines the full investment landscape: ECCC programmes, national competence centres, venture capital, public procurement and
the reforms that would help European companies scale. The question is not whether Europe should invest more, but whether it has the architecture to invest effectively.
On stage:
Ana Maria Busoniu, General Director, NCC-RO
Mustafa Isik, Chief Technologist for Sovereignty, AWS
Alexia Papadimitriou, Senior Research and Innovation Manager, DIGITALEUROPE
Luca Tagliaretti, Executive Director, European Cybersecurity Competence Centre
Joanna Świątkowska, PhD, Secretary General, European Cyber Security Organisation

When a major cyber incident hits, who leads the response?
A national authority, a military cyber command, law enforcement or the intelligence services: there is no clean answer, and governments have paid for its absence.
In a rare public conversation, Panel 9 brings together the full spectrum of response authorities to examine where coordination works, where it fails, and what must change before the next major incident.
On stage:
Otto Elmgart, Head of Unit, National Cyber Security Centre Sweden

Day 2 of BCC2026, in motion. 🎬
From critical infrastructure and the Eastern flank to agentic AI, ransomware and the future of the SOC, yesterday took us to the front line of today’s threats.
That’s a wrap on Day 2 of BCC2026. 🎬
Thank you to every speaker, partner and participant who made today count.
Every sector faces the same challenge. Every sector learns from its own hard experience.
From energy and finance to manufacturing and healthcare, Panel 8 brings together security leaders from very different industries to share what has actually worked:
the investments that paid off, the cultural shifts that changed behaviour, and what AI, OT/IT convergence and new regulation will demand from boards.
On stage:
Ștefan Apostolescu, Senior IT Network Security Engineer, Rompetrol
Cosmin Moldoveanu, Chief Technology Officer
Radu Puchiu, Coordinator, Technology and Society Program, Aspen Institute Romania
Kyle Shepard, Chief Engineer, SNC
Tibor Tvardzik, Senior Solutions Engineer, Netskope
