Nomios Next - Benelux Cybersecurity Summit

ENGLISH TRACK

Nomios Next is a full-day cybersecurity summit bringing together security leaders, architects, and practitioners from across the Benelux. The main programme runs in Dutch — but for international attendees, we've built a dedicated English track with its own opening, keynote, and breakout sessions throughout the day.

A programme built for international teams

Large organisations increasingly rely on internationally diverse IT and security teams. The English track is designed for exactly that audience: senior professionals who want to engage with the strategic and technical security challenges that matter most right now — without the language barrier.

The track opens at 10:30 with coffee and a look at the current technology market landscape, followed by a welcome from Mohamed El Haddouchi, Managing Director of Nomios Netherlands. The centrepiece is a keynote from Mark Raben, former CTO at SAP, who will set the scene for the afternoon ahead.

KEYNOTE - From technology to trust

Change requires more than just a good strategy and smart technology. As the former CTO of SAP, Mark Raben comes from the world of technology and digital transformation. There, he discovered that successful change ultimately starts with people. With humour, stories and insights from neuroscience, he demonstrates how human behaviour, leadership and technology are interconnected. Participants discover how to build trust, turn resistance into engagement and get moving together.

After lunch, three vendor sessions tackle the defining security challenges of the AI era: securing AI transformation through zero trust architecture (Zscaler), defending against AI-driven threats using pre-emptive security strategies (Infoblox), and making board-level commitments on AI security actually stick in practice (Thales). The day closes with drinks and networking — a chance to connect with peers and Nomios specialists across both tracks.
