Barcelona Cybersecurity Congress will address the impact of AI on cybersecurity in its seventh edition.

The congress, organized jointly by Fira de Barcelona and the Cybersecurity Agency of Catalonia, will be structured around three main axes: cybersecurity as a strategic business and reputational factor; artificial intelligence, identity, and trust in the digital environment; and systemic, cyber-physical, and supply chain resilience.

With 150 international experts, 111 exhibitors, an extensive congress program, and new networking spaces, Barcelona Cybersecurity Congress will bring together the main European players in digital protection to focus on the security of industries, companies, critical infrastructure, and urban services in the face of increasingly complex attacks.

According to data from the National Cybersecurity Institute (INCIBE), 122,223 cybersecurity incidents were registered in Spain in 2025, 26% more than in 2024, and 237,028 vulnerable systems were detected and notified.

Flavia Santoro, director of the Barcelona Cybersecurity Congress, remarks on it as follows: “The increase in cybercrime makes it necessary to have spaces where cybersecurity moves from theory to practice, such as BCC, which brings the entire ecosystem together in Barcelona to share needs, identify opportunities, and build new alliances”.
