It is with great pleasure to welcome you to the First International Conference on Digital Sovereignty (ICDS 2024), which will be organised by the Institute for Energy Technology (IFE) from November 28 to 30, 2024, in Oslo, Norway.

In today’s interconnected world, the concept of digital sovereignty has emerged as a critical issue for nations striving to protect their digital infrastructure, maintain control over digital assets, and ensure the integrity of their digital economies. As technology evolves rapidly, the need for robust frameworks and policies to safeguard national interests in the digital realm has never been more pressing. The Institute for Energy Technology (IFE) is proud to announce the International Conference on Digital Sovereignty, a premier event dedicated to exploring the multi-faceted aspects of digital sovereignty, including cyber security, decentralised architectures, data governance, and the ethical deployment of emerging technologies.

This conference will bring together leading experts from industry and academia to share insights, present groundbreaking research, and discuss innovative solutions for maintaining digital sovereignty in an era of unprecedented technological change. Attendees will benefit from diverse presentations and input from cutting-edge academic research that addresses the latest challenges and opportunities in this field and from industry leaders who are at the forefront of implementing digital sovereignty strategies. Join us in ICDS – 2024 to engage in meaningful dialogue, network with key stakeholders, and contribute to shaping the future of digital sovereignty. We can build a more secure, autonomous, and resilient digital world.

We are looking forward to welcoming you!
