EU Digital Sovereignty Tech Package: DSIT and techUK roundtable with cyber security companies

On Thursday 23 July, techUK is delighted to be hosting DSIT for a roundtable with UK cyber security organisations to better understand the concerns and potential impact that the EU's Tech Sovereignty Package may have on them.

Session overview

This will be a participatory session and members are encouraged to come prepared to discuss the following:

• What do UK cyber companies want to have access to?

• What are the EU cyber resilience initiatives that the UK is being excluded from?

• Which parts of the

  tech package text

  are of most concern, or you are likely to be most impacted by, and what would the resulting impact on the EU be?

• How could the

  tech package

  text be changed/what needs to happen to avoid adversely impacting UK cyber companies / the provision of competitive cyber products and services in the EU, in your view?

• Are there any events/forums/associations that companies engage with where this topic may raised?

• What are the top 4–5 priorities the UK should seek to address?

• Are there any specific examples or case studies illustrating UK exclusion, including existing or anticipated barriers, and the resulting impact on the EU?

• Are there aspects of the EU’s Tech Sovereignty Package you see as positive, that we should seek to replicate in the UK?
