By pooling their expertise, Les Assises, RIAMS and Beyond Event have chosen to serve a particularly exposed ecosystem.

These are exciting times

On the one hand, a threat level that continues to accelerate; and on the other, a technological opportunity comparable to the industrial revolution. Threats and opportunities feed on each other, that's a fact, and in the face of that, we can be spectators or players.

By joining forces, Les Assises, Les RIAMS and Beyond Event are choosing to play an active role, and to serve an ecosystem that is particularly exposed.

1st observation: organisations are on high alert.

The intensification of geopolitical tensions is boosting companies' awareness of their security challenges, and speeding up their compliance, with the deployment of regulations such as NIS2. We need to take account of a global, worldwide social, political and economic environment.

2nd observation: we are witnessing a technological revolution.

The race to harness artificial intelligence is reshuffling the deck when it comes to securing businesses. Attack vectors are changing and multiplying; the data generated is increasing exponentially, and so are the attack surfaces. We are in the midst of an unprecedented technological convergence, which can be as positive as it is negative.

Given the increasing complexity of geopolitical interference, the economic and regulatory issues at stake, and the massive adoption of AI, the community has no choice but to get to grips with these key issues, and bring them to the heart of their organisations so that they don't have to put up with them. We must mobilise to help the community's decision-makers go to scale.

 

A complementary trio, skills at the service of the market

Les Assises de la cybersécurité were created 24 years ago. More than just an event, they became an institution.

"Addressing the challenges of cybersecurity on a large scale can only be done with unprecedented resources. In line with our 2024 theme 'Together', which promotes collaboration and sharing as key values for the sector, we have decided to create the Cyber-IA Expo, a trade fair with an original format created in association with the RIAMS and Beyond Event", explains Maria Iacono, Director of Les Assises de la cybersécurité and Ready for IT.

Les RIAMS: the Identity, Audit and Security Management Meetings have been in existence for 19 years and are defined as a private club reserved for TOP 200 companies. Their mantra: "Share to avoid suffering".

Beyond Event: organiser of high value-added trade fairs such as BIM World I Jumeaux Numériques, and renowned for its operational excellence, Beyond Event has adopted Antoine de Saint Exupéry's quote "When it comes to the future, it's not a question of predicting it, but of making it possible".

With this unprecedented partnership, three pillars of the event organisation industry, all key players in the tech and cyber communities, are joining forces to be stronger, faster and more efficient, in the service of the ecosystem.
