This document is the third policy brief resulting from the letter of intent signed during CYBERSEC EXPO & FORUM 2024 on June 19th in Kraków, in the presence of Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Affairs Krzysztof Gawkowski. The agreement was concluded between the Kosciuszko Institute and the European Cyber Security Organisation (ECSO) regarding the organization of a series of events focused on the priorities of digital and technological policy during Poland’s Presidency of the EU Council in 2025. The third meeting in the Road to the Polish Presidency series was dedicated to addressing challenges and overcoming obstacles in dual use technology. In recent years, dual use technologies have become increasingly critical for economic competitiveness, national security, and technological sovereignty. Rapid advancements in areas such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and advanced digital systems offer transformative potential. However, they also introduce challenges, including regulatory fragmentation, export control complexities, and the need for effective collaboration across sectors. Furthermore, geopolitical tensions and evolving global security threats have highlighted the importance of fostering a balanced, coordinated, and forward-looking approach to dual use innovation and deployment. Drawing from a meeting held on November 26, 2024, attended by representatives of the Ministry of Digital Affairs of Poland, the European Cyber Security Organisation (ECSO), the private sector, academia, and the Kosciuszko Institute, together we were able to identify key challenges and solutions surrounding regulatory harmonization, export controls, cross-sector collaboration, and innovation support for dual use technologies. The developed recommendations represent a significant step in building a digital and secure society.

Abstract

This document is the third policy brief resulting from the letter of intent signed during CYBERSEC EXPO & FORUM 2024 on June 19th in Kraków, in the presence of Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Digital Affairs Krzysztof Gawkowski. The agreement was concluded between the Kosciuszko Institute and the European Cyber Security Organisation (ECSO) regarding the organization of a series of events focused on the priorities of digital and technological policy during Poland’s Presidency of the EU Council in 2025. The third meeting in the Road to the Polish Presidency series was dedicated to addressing challenges and overcoming obstacles in dual use technology. In recent years, dual use technologies have become increasingly critical for economic competitiveness, national security, and technological sovereignty. Rapid advancements in areas such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and advanced digital systems offer transformative potential. However, they also introduce challenges, including regulatory fragmentation, export control complexities, and the need for effective collaboration across sectors. Furthermore, geopolitical tensions and evolving global security threats have highlighted the importance of fostering a balanced, coordinated, and forward-looking approach to dual use innovation and deployment. Drawing from a meeting held on November 26, 2024, attended by representatives of the Ministry of Digital Affairs of Poland, the European Cyber Security Organisation (ECSO), the private sector, academia, and the Kosciuszko Institute, together we were able to identify key challenges and solutions surrounding regulatory harmonization, export controls, cross-sector collaboration, and innovation support for dual use technologies. The developed recommendations represent a significant step in building a digital and secure society.
