Interviews by Dr. Davis Ellison with Dr. Victoria Vdovychenko, Dr. Christian Fjäder and Dr. Simona R. Soare on shaping the future of digital defence

July 9, 2025

On the 18th of July 2025, The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies (HCSS) hosted its symposium “From Cloud to Community: Shaping the Future of Digital Defence” in The Hague. HCSS invited experts to exchange views on shaping the future of digital defence, creating a platform for lively debate and cross-sector collaboration. This second edition built on the success of our first event in collaboration with Microsoft in Brussels on March 10, but pushed the conversation further — moving beyond NATO’s digital capabilities to tackle the big question: How do we build a future of digital defence that works for both soldiers on the battlefield and citizens at home.

Read the full event recap here.


Just before HCSS hosted this event, HCSS Strategic Analyst Dr. Davis Ellison managed to briefly interview three of the speakers about shaping the future of digital defence.
