From Start-Up to Scale-Up: Embedding Security into Digital DNA
Overview
In today’s fast-paced digital economy, startups and scale-ups are rapidly growing across markets, users, and platforms. But with speed comes complexity — and risk. As businesses innovate, launch, and expand, traditional security approaches often struggle to keep up, creating friction between growth and protection.
This exclusive roundtable brings together technology and security leaders from digital-native organizations to explore how security can be embedded into the DNA of innovation. From securing cloud-native environments to implementing Zero Trust architectures and safeguarding sensitive data, this session will focus on transforming security from a bottleneck into a business enabler.
Participants will dive deep into the real-world challenges of building scalable, agile security frameworks that evolve with the business — without slowing it down. This discussion will reveal how future-ready teams are making security a competitive advantage right from product design to global expansion.
