Join us for a conversation on cybersecurity in Nordic Tourism

As tourism businesses across the Nordics embrace digital tools and data-driven solutions, cybersecurity has become a critical - yet often overlooked - pillar of sustainable innovation.

This webinar invites hospitality organisations, destination developers, and tourism startups to explore the growing importance of cyber resilience in our sector. Drawing on the experiences from the test tracks of the X-Nordic Travel Contest program with CyberCue, as well as with insights from cybersecurity experts, we will unpack how cybersecurity can go from a technical headache to a strategic enabler for long-term competitiveness of Nordic tourism.
