Cybersecurity Conference: Cybersecurity in the Era of Industry 4.0 and Internet of Things

The European Chamber organised its inaugural Cybersecurity Conference: Cybersecurity in the Era of Industry 4.0 and IoT. The event featured presentations by Mr. Christopher Terence Wood, Deputy Head of the EU Delegation, SAP, a Beijing Normal University professor & consultant to China’s Supreme People’s Court, as well as Norton Rose. This was followed by panel discussion among panellists from Nokia, Huawei, STMicroelectronics, Siemens and Venustech. Participants shared the view that cybersecurity is a critical topic affecting a wide range of industries, and that it can only be enhanced via international cooperation. It was suggested that the country's standardisation and legislation processes should be more open to international stakeholders.
