EPISODE 01: Technology Capability & Security in Europe’s New Defence

Episode 1 explores how shifting geopolitics, emerging technologies and industrial capability are redefining European defence.

Finnish MEP Mika Aaltola outlines the growing strategic importance of the Arctic, the escalation risks posed by Russian activity, and the rising role of drones in shaping the security landscape.

Saab Finland CEO Kristian Tornivaara expands the discussion to Finland’s technology ecosystem, highlighting the nation’s deep-tech strengths, the TRL 6–7 development gap, and the importance of strengthening Europe’s industrial resilience from electronic warfare to semiconductor sovereignty.

Together, the discussion provides a timely perspective on how Finland and Europe must integrate technology, capability development and strategic foresight to remain competitive in a rapidly evolving defence environment.
