Regional Consultative Working Group for Cybersecurity – CAMPUS

In a context where digital transformation brings not only opportunities but also increasingly sophisticated threats, the need for a coordinated approach to cybersecurity is greater than ever. For this reason, the Regional Consultative Working Group for Cybersecurity – CAMPUS is being organised, an initiative designed to strengthen the digital resilience of the North-East region, inspired by the European Cyber Campus model.

When? 21 November 2025, starting from 10:00.

Where? “Gheorghe Asachi” Technical University of Iaşi, Faculty of Industrial Design and Business Management, Ground Floor, SMARTER Room.

Location here.

About CAMPUS

The CAMPUS programme addresses digital resilience: the capacity of local and regional authorities (LRA) to withstand, absorb and recover from disruptions caused by external digital threats or natural disasters, through the application of cybersecurity/resilience legislation, critical infrastructures, and digital/cybersecurity skills.

The overall objective of CAMPUS is to support the partner territories in becoming more digitally resilient, taking into account the cross-cutting and multiple areas of cybersecurity.

Why does this initiative matter?

The CAMPUS Working Group is not just a one-off meeting, but the beginning of a structured cooperation framework for cybersecurity in North-Eastern Romania.

Through this initiative:

  • an ecosystem is created at regional level around cybersecurity;
  • the development of projects and partnerships with real impact is accelerated;
  • the formation of a culture of digital resilience at the level of institutions and companies is supported;
  • concrete steps are taken towards a regional model inspired by Cyber Campus France, adapted to the local context.
