Description

In the Nordics, data sovereignty is becoming a competitive differentiator—not just compliance. As organizations adopt agentic AI, the focus is shifting from how data is used to who controls it.

Across the region, enforcement of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and scrutiny of cross-border transfers are exposing reliance on non-European cloud providers. Laws such as the USA PATRIOT Act and the Cloud Act further complicate control.

AI accelerates the challenge, with data constantly moving and being inferred across borders.

Leading organizations are shifting to a data-centric cyber control plane—converging identity, data security, threat intelligence, and AI-driven policy enforcement to deliver real-time, context-aware protection.

Attendees will gain a practical framework to strengthen control, reduce risk, and scale trusted AI while meeting Nordic sovereignty expectations.
