2026

14:00 – 14:15 Introduction 

Official opening of the day by Patrick Radja, alongside institutional representatives.


14:15 – 14:30 Exceptional address by Anne Le Hénanff

A highly anticipated speech on the major national and European challenges related to artificial intelligence, digital technology, and cybersecurity.


14:30 – 14:55 Opening keynote on AI and cybersecurity

With Ihsen Alouani, researcher at Université Polytechnique Hauts-de-France, specializing in embedded AI (“Edge AI”), cybersecurity, and privacy protection. A talk focused on the intersection of artificial intelligence and cybersecurity in embedded environments.


14:55 – 15:50  Roundtable – How can we remain in control of our choices ? 

As embedded AI becomes the decision-making core of our infrastructures, vehicles, defense systems, industrial networks, and connected devices, a key question arises: who truly controls the technology driving our critical environments? 

This roundtable will address the key challenges related to technological sovereignty in a context of rapidly accelerating embedded AI. 


 Topics covered :

- The impact of regulations on industrial players

-  Strategic choices in AI development and integration 

- Sovereignty challenges for European organizations

-  The need for coordinated action to remain competitive


 Speakers: 

- Arik Roztal – Global Head of Cybersecurity Business Development at NVIDIA 

- Victor Vuillard – Mistral AI


15:50 – 16:30 Break

16:30 – 16:50 Interview – AI and protection of embedded systems : A new ally 

With Pierre Ansel, CEO and founder of SEEDFENCE


16:50 – 17:35 Roundtable – Actions and cooperation: the driving force of European success

Embedded AI is becoming the strategic backbone of our critical systems. From autonomous drones to secure satellite constellations, from sovereign industrial chains to digital defense platforms, one fact is clear: no state, company, or team can succeed alone. 


The complexity of threats, the speed of technological disruption, European regulatory demands, and the global race for industrial and digital sovereignty require a new approach—one based on collective action and structured cooperation. 


This roundtable tackles a central question: how can Europe transform its strengths into a true strategic advantage with strong industrial ambition?


17:40 – 18:00 Discussion – Cross perspectives from institutional and strategic stakeholders on AI & cyber challenges

18:10 – 18:30 Closing remarks

18:30 – 23:30 Networking session with drinks, dinner, and evening networking event
