Sovereign by Design: Europe’s Deep‑Tech Backbone

A resilient union must cover the right sectors, while keeping its society united. But resilience fails if we neglect any of them.

Key pilars like Defence, Food Security, Access to Space, Energy, and Compute & AI are to be fostered to ensure Europe’s continuous resilience.

Join Vsquared, Arkadia Space, Destinus and Voltrac for a candid discussion on how European startups are turning deep tech into sovereign capability. This is development from Europe for Europe.

The talk will cover what pilars could break and would what happen, which levers unlock deployment, and how space‑air‑ground startups are ready today.

Resilience is not just bouncing back – it’s bouncing forward, adapting to new realities while preserving what matters most.

We’ll explore:

How new technologies in space, defence, food access and logistics contribute to Europe’s industrial sovereignty.
The role of startups and private capital in building resilient supply chains and infrastructures.
How European regulation, procurement, and cross-border collaboration can accelerate strategic independence.
