Focus on Luxembourg skills presented at FIC 2023

The importance of cybersecurity for all companies, especially those involved in Industry 4.0 initiatives, is no longer an issue to be discussed. It’s a matter of course, and Luxembourg has a wealth of expertise in the field.

These were presented at the National Pavilion organised at the heart of the International Cybersecurity Forum (FIC), the benchmark event for digital security and trust.

The 2023 edition, organised in Lille, broke all records, attracting over 16,000 visitors, proof of the market’s growing interest in this theme.

Set up on the initiative of the Luxembourg House of Cybersecurity (LHC) and Luxinnovation, in collaboration with the Luxembourg Defence Directorate and the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs, this pavilion gave the national cybersecurity ecosystem a prominent place at the heart of this event.

The selected Luxembourg companies – SMEs, large corporations and research organisations – all have a proven track record in cyber defence and security.

The FIC was an excellent opportunity for them to benefit from exposure and promote their solutions to other countries and delegations. Potential partners were welcomed during visits organised on the national pavilion. A  presentation of the entire ecosystem by Luxinnovation and the Ministry of the Economy was also included in the Forum’s agenda.

One of the missions of the Luxembourg Digital Innovation Hub (L-DIH) is to raise awareness of cybersecurity within Luxembourg’s manufacturing industry. The L-DIH team offers you here a brief presentation of the players housed in the national pavilion, likely to be of interest to the country’s industrial companies.
