Access-2-Market Matchmaking Event in Barcelona, Spain

The European Cybersecurity Competence Centre (ECCC) announces a new Access-2-Market Matchmaking Event, scheduled for 23 May 2024, from 10AM to 2PM. This event falls within the scope of project ECCO, coordinated by ECSO.

It is organised jointly with the Spanish National Coordination Centre Instituto Nacional de Ciberseguridad de España (INCIBE), Women4Cyber, The Cybersecurity Agency of Catalonia, DCA, and will be held back-to-back with the Barcelona Cybersecurity Congress in the Hacking Village area, hall 1 of Fira Gran Via Barcelona.

The Access-2-Market plays a crucial role in the European cybersecurity landscape by encouraging networking and collaboration among CISOs, corporate leaders, and cybersecurity providers. It is more than just networking and information exchange: it provides a real stage for selected EU companies to pitch their solutions to a targeted audience of potential buyers.

The thematic focus of the event is “solutions for the healthcare sector or for critical infrastructure”.
