This full-day event looks at how Europe can use artificial intelligence to strengthen cybersecurity and support innovation. It brings together EU-funded projects, industry, researchers, policymakers and public authorities to discuss emerging technologies, policy developments and cooperation opportunities.
Organised by the European Cybersecurity Competence Centre (ECCC) and the European Commission’s DG CNECT, the event is designed to explore how advanced AI technologies can be used safely and responsibly in cybersecurity. Discussions are framed by the EU Action Plan on Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence, with reference to other European initiatives such as the Apply AI Strategy.
The programme focuses on two complementary aspects: the ECCC AI for Cybersecurity Cluster and the EU Grand Challenge on AI-assisted vulnerability remediation.
The programme covers EU funding for AI in cybersecurity, synergies between projects across Europe, AI-assisted vulnerability discovery and remediation, and the use of AI in security operations alongside the evolving regulatory landscape. It also marks the first public gathering of the ECCC AI for Cybersecurity Cluster, which brings together three Horizon Europe flagship projects funded under the 2025 call on generative AI for cybersecurity applications. Relevant Digital Europe Programme cybersecurity projects may also contribute.
Target group: EU-funded projects, industry, researchers and policymakers

Across Europe, many education systems face persistent challenges, including declining learning outcomes, high dropout rates, teacher shortages, and widening inequalities linked to socio-economic background. KU Leuven coordinates two Horizon Europe Cluster 2 projects that are strongly interlinked and aim to generate robust, evidence-based insights that can support more effective, inclusive, and resilient education systems across Europe.
