During the session, the speakers offered a strategic vision and an in-depth look into the future, addressing key issues such as the use of dual technologies, ethical and regulatory challenges, and Europe's role in the new global context. Likewise, the participants emphasized the importance of strengthening collaboration among companies, technology centers, universities, and public institutions as an essential element in driving innovation and competitiveness in the sector.
