⚠️ Cyberattacks on energy grids are on the rise, bringing severe consequences like power outages, production shutdowns, and endangered infrastructure. At Siemens, we believe in proactive solutions. As part of the FFG Österreichische Forschungsförderungsgesellschaft mbH funded CREIS research project, we're collaborating with our #SiemensRIE partner, Technische Universität Graz, to develop innovative protective measures for critical energy infrastructure together with ISEC TU Graz. Our mission spans from vulnerability analysis to crafting robust, long-term security solutions for both IT and OT environments. Our approach? Decades of industrial research and expertise in energy automation meet scientific excellence in cybersecurity. 💪 This powerful synergy allows us to not only meet EU requirements like #NIS2 and the #CyberResilienceAct (CRA). We're also setting new benchmarks for sustainable cybersecurity, not just in the energy sector, but across all industrial automation. Through partnership and innovative research, we are building a more resilient and secure industrial landscape.

In their opening remarks, Stephan Völker (TU Berlin) and Cedrik Neike (Siemens) highlighted the importance of trusted, long-term academia–industry collaboration to turn research into real-world impact. The event showcased concrete outcomes and new initiatives, including SmartEdge, Chatter Detect, and BioBlock, as well as emerging projects such as GeCo, MALDESE, Re-Man, and ORCHESTRA. Startup collaboration was highlighted through Porelio, where Siemens for Startups demonstrated that Siemens is a reliable and strong scaling partner for startups across multiple technology domains. In her closing remarks, Fatma Deniz, Vice President for Digitalization and Sustainability and newly elected President of TU Berlin, emphasized TU Berlin’s strong commitment to deepening collaboration with key industry partners such as Siemens. The outcomes of the meeting are highly tangible, with multiple follow-up activities already underway - marking an important step toward a more holistic and long-term collaboration between Siemens, TU Berlin, and the University of Oxford. Thank you to all partners and project teams for the inspiring exchange. This is how research becomes innovation - and innovation creates lasting impact. #ResearchAndInnovation #TrilateralSeedFund #TUBerlin #UniversityOfOxford #DeepTech #InnovationEcosystem #SiemensRIE #SiemensForStartups

The Siemens UK RIE team were delighted to see this great programme launched just before Christmas. Intended to be a world-leading programme in human-centred, trustworthy AI for manufacturing, driving green growth, productivity, resilience, and social sustainability, we have been involved from the early applications process, working with RIE partners such as The University of Sheffield, University of Oxford, University of Birmingham, AMRC, MTC - Manufacturing Technology Centre and the University of Nottingham, in order to get it off the ground. As an added bonus I'm delighted to say that we have been asked to chair the Industrial Steering Board for the first couple of years. Stay tuned for further updates! https://lnkd.in/e5TJMHtD
