The Cyber-security Excellence Hub in Estonia and South Moravia (CHESS) will bring together leading
R&I institutions in both regions to build connected innovation ecosystems to address one of the most important issues confronting Europe today: Cyber-Security. Considering recent world events and the EU’s goal to fully digitize the economy and society by 2030 – the Cybersecurity topic should be at the forefront of agendas. European cybersecurity must be addressed at multiple levels: local, national, European. It needs to not only address gaps in security that exist today but also must be prepared for future threats, which is why research and innovation is needed.
