EU4Innovation East enabled cybersecurity knowledge sharing for Armenian and Moldovan delegations in France and Estonia
The EU-funded EU4Innovation East project recently organised and supported a series of strategic study visits on cybersecurity for delegations from Armenia and Moldova. The primary objective of these missions was to strengthen national cybersecurity frameworks through direct engagement with the European digital security ecosystem.
The Armenian delegation’s journey began in Estonia, where they explored the nation’s renowned e-governance and security infrastructure. Through meetings with the Information System Authority (RIA), the e-Estonia Briefing Centre, and the Cyber Tech Cluster, participants gained insights into public-private cooperation and digital forensics at TalTech.
In Paris, both Moldovan and Armenian delegations visited Campus Cyber and met with key entities, including the French National Cybersecurity Agency (ANSSI) and the Cyber Booster Incubator. Armenia’s delegation gained insights into the French Cybersecurity Code and innovation lab structure, while Moldova’s delegation secured institutional support to boost its new National Cybersecurity Agency’s operational capacity..
The delegations also participated in the 18th edition of the International Cybersecurity Forum (InCyber/FIC) in Lille, a major European event centered on digital security and trust, taking place from 30 March to 2 April.
The visits facilitated the establishment of professional networks between public institutions, private industry, and academia. For Armenia, the focus remained on the legal and investment frameworks necessary to sustain a secure digital economy. For Moldova, the visit resulted in concrete technical cooperation agreements, particularly regarding infrastructure architecture.
By aligning with European standards and fostering bilateral partnerships, the EU4Innovation East project supports the development of robust and modernised cybersecurity governance in the Eastern Partnership region.
