Security, resilience and innovation
Luxembourg’s role in supporting Europe’s stabilityThursday, 18 June 2026 | Philharmonie Luxembourg
Europe’s security and resilience are becoming an investment and policy priority. The question is how to mobilise capital and capabilities at scale.
We invite you to a high-level evening bringing together financial institutions, investors and strategic industry leaders, with contributions from NATO, the European Investment Fund and LuxDefence, on 18 June 2026 at the Philharmonie Luxembourg. At a time when security and resilience are becoming central to Europe’s strategic agenda, this discussion will explore how public instruments, private capital and industrial capabilities can be better aligned.
The conference will be followed by a private concert performed by the Academicians of the Luxembourg Philharmonic Orchestra, and a cocktail reception.
The conference and the concert can be attended independently.
The registration form is adapted accordingly.
