RELEVANCE

The rapid growth of autonomous and dual use drone operations across Europe is creating both new opportunities and new operational challenges for governments, infrastructure operators and public safety organizations. Drones are increasingly becoming part of emergency response, infrastructure inspection, situational awareness and operational resilience across civilian, governmental and defence sectors.

At the same time, Europe faces increasing pressure from unauthorized drone activity, GNSS disruption, electronic warfare and hybrid threats targeting critical infrastructure and shared airspace. As autonomous systems become more integrated into society, understanding how to safely enable trusted drone operations while detecting and responding to malicious activity has never been more important.

Nordic Security Summit 2027 addresses these realities by bringing together authorities, regulators, infrastructure operators, emergency response organizations, defence stakeholders and industry leaders to explore how Europe and the Nordics can build resilient autonomous societies through operational collaboration, shared situational awareness and trusted integration.

Security Summit 2027 – Enable, Detect, Protect & Respond

The Nordic Security Summit 2027 is a high level European security and resilience conference. Bringing together public authorities, defence stakeholders, infrastructure operators, emergency response organizations, regulators, technology providers and operational leaders to explore how Europe can build resilient and trusted autonomous societies in an era of increasing operational pressure.

Drones Under Pressure

Lessons from Ukraine. Building Resilient Autonomous Societies.

Autonomous and dual use drone systems are rapidly becoming part of Europe’s societal and operational infrastructure. Drones now support public safety, emergency response, infrastructure inspection, situational awareness, multidomain operations and remote operational capability across civilian, governmental and defence sectors.

At the same time, Europe faces increasing pressure from GNSS disruption, hybrid threats, electronic warfare, unauthorized drone activity and emerging risks against critical infrastructure. The challenge is no longer only how to scale drone operations safely, but how to build resilient operational ecosystems where lawful drone operations can coexist with effective detection, tracking and response capability against non cooperative and malicious activity.

A central focus area of Nordic Security Summit 2027 is operational lessons learned from Ukraine.

Ukraine has become one of the world’s most accelerated operational environments for multidrone operations, electronic warfare adaptation, resilient communications, autonomous coordination, infrastructure protection and rapid operational innovation. The summit explores how these operational experiences can support future resilience strategies for Europe and the Nordics across public safety, infrastructure protection and trusted autonomous integration.

Over two intensive days of keynote sessions, operational briefings, strategic discussions and expert workshops, participants will examine how technology, operational experience, policy and collaboration must evolve together to support safe coexistence in the autonomous era.

Rather than focusing only on drones as threats, Nordic Security Summit 2027 explores the broader operational reality of shared airspace and resilient societies, balancing innovation, societal value and operational resilience.

———————————————————————————————————————————————————————

The summit is structured around four operational pillars:

ENABLE

How can Europe safely scale trusted drone operations for public safety, emergency response, infrastructure inspection and societal resilience?

DETECT

How do we build shared situational awareness through Remote ID, U space, detection systems and operational data sharing?

TRACK

How do authorities and infrastructure operators track cooperative and non cooperative drone activity in increasingly complex operational environments?

DEFEAT

How do we develop proportionate Counter UAS capability and resilient response frameworks against unauthorized and malicious drone activity?

Key Themes

  • Building Resilient Autonomous Societies: How Europe and the Nordics can build trusted operational ecosystems where autonomous systems strengthen public safety, emergency response and infrastructure resilience.
  • Lessons from Ukraine: Operational insights from one of the world’s most accelerated environments for drone operations, electronic warfare adaptation, resilient communications and multidomain operational coordination.
  • Trusted Drone Integration: How drones can safely become part of critical societal operations including public safety, emergency response, inspection, logistics and infrastructure monitoring.
  • Shared Situational Awareness: How Remote ID, U space, sensor fusion and operational collaboration create a shared operational picture across authorities and infrastructure operators.
  • Detection, Tracking and Counter UAS: Understanding the full operational chain from detection and identification to tracking, decision support and proportionate response capability.
  • GNSS Resilience and Electronic Warfare: How societies maintain trusted operations during disruption, interference and operational pressure.
  • Critical Infrastructure Protection: Protecting airports, ports, energy systems, telecom infrastructure and transportation networks in the autonomous era.
  • Multi Domain and Dual Use Operations: Exploring how civilian, governmental and defence actors collaborate in increasingly interconnected operational environments.
  • Data Fusion and Operational Intelligence: Turning radar, RF, EO IR, Remote ID and operational data into actionable situational awareness and operational decision making.
  • Safe Coexistence in Shared Airspace: Balancing innovation, societal benefit and operational resilience as autonomous systems scale across Europe.
