Tech Market 2025

EXCLUSIVE INVITATION! Sovereignty, autonomy & the future

We’re excited to invite you to Tech Market 2025 on June 5—an event where technology meets real-world impact.

This year’s theme, “Sovereignty & Autonomy – Taking control of our future,” brings together technology, policy, and real-world decision-making at a moment when staying in control has never mattered more.

Expect big questions, bold ideas, working tech—and conversations that go beyond the usual. Whether you're here for inspiration, insights, or just a great exchange with peers, we’ve got you covered.

Meet the speakers

We’ve curated a lineup of speakers who don’t just talk about change—they drive it!

Keynote: “The Fourth Industrial Revolution and Europe’s Strategic Future”

From semiconductors to AI and digital infrastructure, Maaike will show how emerging tech is redrawing the global map—and why Europe must act now to safeguard its strategic autonomy. A keynote that connects boardroom strategy with global diplomacy.

Tom Driessen

Strategic Advisor in Security, Governance & International Cooperation

Keynote: “From Crisis Management to Sovereign Resilience”

Pieter-Jaap Aalbersberg

National Coordinator for Counterterrorism and Security (NCTV)

Keynote: “Building Resilience in a Time of Hybrid Threats”
