Liina Areng will speak in the panel session “Technology and Hybrid Threats”, focusing on practical steps that like-minded countries can take, nationally and collectively, to strengthen resilience and coordinate more effective responses to hybrid threats such as cyber attacks and disinformation. She will highlight how EU cyber capacity building can support partners in addressing these challenges.

TSD is a leading global policy summit on critical and emerging technologies, bringing together political leaders, senior officials, industry innovators and civil society to discuss how to harness technological opportunities while managing the risks. The forum is designed to amplify diverse perspectives and broaden public debate. TDS highlights policy thinking from Southeast Asia and Oceania, creating space for new partnerships between governments and industry and deepening existing cooperation. TSD 2025 will explore major trends across AI, cybersecurity, quantum technologies, biotechnology, space, hybrid warfare, climate and critical infrastructure. Discussions will examine how technology is reshaping workforces, shifting economic and strategic power, affecting supply chains and transforming defence.
