    Please join us at an exclusive Industry-to-Industry Summit hosted in Oslo at Scandic Solli by SFI NORCICS and ISTARI. 

    Why Attend? 

    As the tech that we and our adversaries use become more intelligent, no one person alone will be able to build comprehensive resilience.  Individuals with best-in-class tools will be able to go part of the way, but smart cyber resilience requires a 360-degree approach that brings together all the parts of the organisation to attack a common problem and find smart solutions together. 

    Our one-day Smart Resilience Summit brings together industry leaders, tech experts, and forward-thinking enterprises to explore new strategies for “smart” cyber resilience that harness new technologies and holistic organisational approaches to stay one step ahead of your security needs. 

    What to Expect 

    Interactive presentations and discussions with practitioners and innovators on:  

    • Smart vulnerability management: Lessons from the cyber frontline 
    • Third-party risk: Smart efforts for maximum impact 
    • Data-driven governance: Seeing the whole picture 
    • The OT-IT Nexus: Closing the Gap 
    • Harnessing AI and next gen cyber defence  
    • Engaging with Boards in a NIS2 World 
    • Smart Cyber Survival Skills: Case studies of cyber resilience on the edge 

    Networking & Collaboration 

    Meet with other senior leaders and innovators from across the region. Build connections and share experiences in a dynamic, in-person setting. 

    Refreshments and lunch will be served.

    FAME: Federated decentralized trusted dAta Marketplace for Embedded finance

    FAME. “FAME.” Accessed 13.08.2025. https://www.fame-horizon.eu.

    FAME is a joint effort of world-class experts in data management, data technologies, the data economy, and digital finance, aiming to develop and launch to the global market a unique, trustworthy, energy-efficient, and secure federated data marketplace for Embedded Finance (EmFi).

    ​The FAME project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2023 Research and Innovation Programe under grant agreement nª 101092639. Views and opinions expressed are however those of the author(s) only and do not necessarily reflect those of the European Union or Horizon Europe. Neither the European Union nor the granting authority can be held responsible for them.

    Marketplace

    The FAME Federated Data Marketplace for Embedded Finance is a Data Space, according to the definition of the EU, customized for buying and selling federated data assets in the financial sector.

    Accessible through a unified entry point, the Marketplace allows for secure data access, sharing, trading and analysis through FAME’s analytical tools for both finance and non-finance organizations, tech and non-tech users, and other end-users.

    Why FAME?

    Modern data marketplaces are transforming how data assets are shared, traded, and utilized. Recent European initiatives have made significant strides, particularly in enhancing data monetization, regulatory compliance, and secure data exchange. However, existing centralized marketplaces face challenges that limit broader participation and accessibility. Notable limitations include complex data discovery processes, limited transparency in value-based data monetization, and insufficient integration of trusted, energy-efficient analytics. Addressing these gaps can unlock new data-driven applications in sectors like finance, retail, and smart cities, empowering innovative services that seamlessly integrate financial data. That is where FAME comes in.
