At the end of November, the Brno-based CyberCampuscz came to life with an exceptional gathering, as we welcomed a delegation of fifteen cybersecurity experts. The historically first Czech-Ukrainian conference on cybersecurity, "Cybersecurity Twister Czechia & Ukraine", organized by CzechInno and CyberSecurityHubcz, marked the beginning of a new chapter in Czech-Ukrainian relations. Representatives from government spheres, universities, clusters, and other business entities came together to share their knowledge and experiences while also offering specific avenues for potential future collaboration.
In an atmosphere of expertise, openness, and a shared determination to forge a new chapter in relations with Ukraine, Ukrainian representatives in Brno also met with representatives from Czech authorities, institutions, and initiatives. The invitation was accepted by experts from the Czech National Cyber and Information Security Agency (NÚKIB), Masaryk University, CSIRT-MU, CyberSecurityHubcz, and the Ministry of Industry and Trade. Discussions revolved around possibilities for strategic partnerships, the establishment of a committee "Czech Republic - Ukraine", and the overall framework of relations.
