2025 edition: Emerging Technologies for European Resilience
As the European Union moves to increase its strategic resilience, it needs to strengthen its NATO participation, to develop its defense industrial base, and to maximize the impact of its investment by focusing on innovation and frontier technologies. All of this without losing sight of the fundamental values it is trying to protect. Aligned with this set of strategic necessities, the Genval Forum II showcases cutting-edge responsible innovation with potential dual-use applications, serving as a bridge between dual-use AI and frontier tech innovators, investors, legislators, procurement authorities, compliance experts, and civil society.
To support the growth of the dual-use AI and tech ecosystem, with a focus on companies, investors, and projects that are aligned with democratic values
To accelerate the development of a modern European defense industrial base through the integration of dual-use emerging technologies
To shape the policy conversation on dual use innovation and to build a long-term narrative for responsible dual-use AI and tech
2024 edition: Geopolitical Europe 2030
Whether formally engaged with the AURORA Coalition or not, Forum partners and exhibitors can opt to remain engaged in projects related to responsible dual-use technology that Vanguard supports — through dedicated newsletters, community updates, and future invitations to relevant events.
The Vanguard narrative of principles- based, responsible dual-use innovation in accordance with democratic values is the narrative that can gain most traction in the evolution and growth of the dual-use market at the European level. Forum partners and exhibitors are part of that narrative and take part in building it and nurturing it.
Because Vanguard is a mission-driven entity that vets its affiliations based on mission alignment, it has a strategic interest in the success of its collaborators. Forum partners and exhibitors have an open channel to Vanguard for personalized assistance when needed, from policy intelligence to relevant connections and advocacy.
Vanguard Europe is a mission-driven company. Our goal is to empower clients aligned with the long-term strategic objectives that contribute to the European Union’s success on the global stage: the transatlantic partnership, technological competitiveness, strategic resilience, democratic consolidation, and security and defense.

We specialize in distilling nuanced policy and political intelligence, creating powerful long-term narratives, galvanizing mission-driven coalitions for effective advocacy, and building projects with strategic added value.
