In an era where pandemics, geopolitical conflicts, and climate-driven disruptions have become the new normal, digital resilience is no longer a luxury — it’s a lifeline. This insight-rich session brings together two of Estonia’s digital governance pioneers, Cybernetica and Nortal, to explore what it truly takes to build digital states that don’t just survive crises, but are architected to thrive through them. In this session, powered by Estonian ICT Cluster, the presenters will reveal why practice beats theory, how sovereignty begins with design, and what today’s governments must do to ensure their digital backbone can withstand the shocks of tomorrow.
