The AI Breakfast series is coming to Zurich!
As artificial intelligence becomes foundational to economic and national power, cybersecurity is emerging as a central pillar of technological sovereignty. Recent escalations in the Middle East, including cyber activity linked to tensions with Iran, demonstrate how geopolitical tensions, supply chain risks, and the growing role of AI in cyber offense and defense are reshaping the global technology landscape.
For Europe, this moment presents both a challenge and an opportunity: the chance to build secure, trusted digital infrastructure and globally competitive cybersecurity companies.
Hosted at the ETH AI Center and presented by Merantix Capital and Imagine You Know, this AI Breakfast brings together founders, investors, and industry leaders to discuss how shifting geopolitics and the rise of AI are redefining cybersecurity — and what it will take for Europe to build its own sovereign cyber capabilities.
Panelists:
Adrian Locher (Co-founder & GP, Merantix Capital)Linda Brunner (Founding Partner, Imagine You Know)Ivan Puddu (Co-Founder & CEO, Soverli)Tobias Lieberum (Founder & CEO, CyberDesk)
