Arctic Security Conference brings together leading politicians, military officials, researchers and security experts from across Europe and North America to discuss maritime security, hybrid threats at sea and the changing geopolitical landscape in the Arctic.

This years programme features high-level speakers including Espen Barth Eide, Lisa Murkowski, Ine Eriksen Søreide and Karen Ellemann, alongside representatives from US Coast Guard, NORAD, Equinor, Royal United Services Institute and other leading Arctic and security institutions.

Across the day, the conference will explore how increasing geopolitical tensions, new maritime activity and emerging hybrid threats are reshaping the Arctic. Discussions will cover everything from critical infrastructure and shipping routes to transatlantic cooperation, Nordic security and the long-term consequences of a potentially ice-free Arctic Ocean.

The conference is open to the public and will also be streamed online. The full programme and registration details will be published on the conference website.

The main conference takes place on Wednesday, 16 September, with additional open and closed events organised the day before and the day after.
