Organization for Cyber Defense Innovation

Since its inaugural meeting in 2018, CYDEF has consistently grown, attracting approximately 350 speakers and 6000 audience members over the past seven years.

CYDEF 2025, now in its eighth year, will center around sessions organized by associated research institutes primarily from NATO countries, as in the previous year, while also expanding its framework to include the Indo-Pacific nations.

Moving forward, we aim to position CYDEF as a key hub for collaboration between industry, government and academia, both domestically and internationally.

As in previous years, we will invite distinguished figures in the field of cyber defense innovation, including government ministers, cyber ambassadors, cyber commanders, university researchers and corporate executives from various countries.

To assist those who are not proficient in English, simultaneous Japanese-English simultaneous subtitles are provided, enabling participants to follow the proceedings by listening to expert discussions that have been appropriately translated, including those on specialized fields.
