FORUM PROGRAMME

12 strategic panels — from shipyards and the Navy, through drones and cybersecurity, to nuclear energy and the resilience of local communities.

01 The renaissance of Poland’s shipbuilding and defence industry

Shipyards 2040

How much of a ship’s value actually stays in Poland — and will today’s vocational-school student be working in a Polish shipyard five years from now?

02 Cybersecurity, AI and the synergy of security

From strategy to resilience

We have the strategic documents. The question is how to turn them into capabilities that work on a Monday morning.

03 Nuclear and offshore as the foundation of Poland’s energy security

Energy 2040

The nuclear programme and offshore wind farms are the same problem twice over: schedules, supply chains and a workforce that takes years to train.

04 The nuclear umbrella in Poland’s security architecture

Nuclear deterrence

The nuclear debate is back, but it is being conducted without ordering the basic concepts. A panel strictly in the strategic and political dimension.

05 Drones and autonomy at sea, on land and in the air

The unmanned revolution

The adversary’s adaptation cycle is measured in weeks; the public procurement cycle in years. In this field, the 2040 horizon is not what counts.

06 Battlefield medicine and health security

Medical forces 2040

A casualty’s survival is decided in the first minutes and by the efficiency of evacuation, not by the equipment of the destination hospital.

07 Water as a strategic resource

Water security 2040

Contaminating an intake is a cheap scenario for the attacker and a painful one for a large number of people. Who in Poland is responsible for this?

08 Future competencies for security and the maritime economy

Workforce 2040

You can order a ship and sign a contract for a reactor. You cannot order a certified welder or an officer with ten years’ experience.

09 Maritime security and war at sea

Polish Navy 2040

The Baltic has no depths for a submarine to hide in and no distance to buy reaction time. Everything happens in full view of everyone.

10 A new model for maritime economic districts

Kashubia Green Industrial District

Building a wind farm means a few years of profit. The service base and subcontractors stay for twenty-five. Where in that chain is the place for Polish companies?

11 Arms exports, alliances and Poland’s security

Economic diplomacy 2040

How do we turn record defence spending into a lasting industrial advantage, when spending by itself does not create industry?

12 The resilience of local communities and civil defence

Local government 2040

In many municipalities evacuation plans exist formally but have never been tested. A local-government debate on what can be done without waiting for Warsaw.
