Diligent Sponsors the Munich Security Conference

Diligent, the pioneer in modern governance, joins the ranks of visionary technology companies who see the future of global security in the digital domain by sponsoring the Munich Security Conference (MSC), the world's premier security and defense forum.

Digitization is a megatrend that continues to change the world, in 2020 and beyond. States and non-state actors, including both private companies and NGOs will need to work in concert to shape the governance implications of this transition. The future of defense and security, like that of all other domains, will be greatly influenced by our collective ability to master digital technologies and improve governance processes around the world.

Diligent recognizes the need for digital solutions to secure our governance system. "The Munich Security Conference offers a unique space for high-ranking representatives of government, academia, and industry to meet and collaborate on solutions to global security challenges. We are thrilled to support this distinctive event, join the discussion, and share the knowledge we've gathered from working with directors and executives globally," says Diligent CEO Brian Stafford.

The 56^th Munich Security Conference takes place at Hotel Bayerischer Hof in Munich from February 14 to 16. The MSC gathers more than 450 high-profile and senior decision-makers as well as thought-leaders from around the world, including heads of state, ministers, leading personalities of international and non-governmental organizations, high-ranking representatives of industry, media, academia, and civil society, to engage in an intensive debate on security policy.
