EU CyberNet’s 2025 Wrapped!

EU CyberNet 2025 is wrapped: a year towards more cyber resilient societies globally. The EU CyberNet team wishes happy holiday season and is looking forward to 2026 with excitement!

“Looking back at 2025, we see a year shaped by new partnerships and focused, action-driven efforts through our Expert Pool to build more cyber resilient societies globally. Our work has entered an exciting new phase, expanding to the Indo-Pacific region. In 2026, EU CyberNet remains focused on delivering practical, demand-driven capacity building and to strengthening cooperation across regions. While our focus will increasingly turn to the Indo-Pacific, we will continue working closely with LAC4 to support capacity building in Latin America and the Caribbean. This allows us to advance into 2026 stronger with new initiatives like the upcoming EU CyberNet’s first Winter School for Expert Pool and activities tailored to our new focus counties.” – Liina Areng, EU CyberNet Director.
