Renewed Cyber Security Nordic Competition is opened – First keynote speakers confirmed
The Cyber Security Nordic Competition seeks innovative solutions and services in the field of cybersecurity that influence the development, growth, and internationalisation of the industry. Cyber Security Nordic is arranged in collaboration with the Finnish Information Security Cluster (FISC).
The Business Manager, Marcus Bergström, emphasizes the significance of cybersecurity and its impact on society. "Cybersecurity is a paramount issue that resonates with everyone, as it encompasses the well-being of individuals, organizations, and global security as a whole. Through this award, we aim to foster innovation and shine a spotlight on those who are setting the course for others, " states Bergström.
The competition is open until the 24. September to a cybersecurity company, team or organisation, operating and registered in Finland. The finalists for pitching will be announced in the beginning of October.
The competition jury will select the entrants that will go through to the final by 24 Sept, and will, in their selection, pay attention to the potential impact and scalability of the entry. The finalists selected by the jury will present their product or service in a pitch competition on the Cyber Security Nordic main stage on 7 November 2023, and the jury will then select the winner. The winner will receive a €10,000 prize, donated by the Finnish Fair Foundation.
