This includes six companies from Asia, 38 from Europe, nine from Latin America and 77 from North America. This is a truly global coalition and we’re very proud to be part of it,” said Patterson.
The Cyber Future Dialogue panel on January 21 will see Patterson and other experts explore pressing issues and challenges in the cyber domain, including building global cybercapacity and developing talent to counter increasingly complex threats.

During the 13th Annual Cybersecurity Roundtable on January 22, Patterson will discuss the role cybersecurity plays in ensuring trust in the digital economy, and how the technology industry can work together to further improve the security of our online ecosystem. The roundtable will particularly look at the role technology can play in achieving the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals, with a focus on promoting peace, justice and strong institutions.
“Businesses and nations across the globe are struggling to tackle the challenges posed by ever-increasing cyberthreats and disruptions,” said Patterson. “Cybersecurity and trust have become top-of-the-agenda items for boards and governments, and as we enter a new decade, the threats and high-profile attacks that characterized the previous decade are here to stay. Now more than ever, it’s essential for leaders to come together to focus and deliberate on the fundamental aspects of cyber risk, and to address it collectively by nurturing talent through education and mentoring programs.”
