Memberships

With technology unfolding at remarkable speeds the sound thinking and factual approach of our experts bring to the table are more important. Our focus is to bring out our work to key audiences - from boardrooms to ministries. Achieving this impact in the face of so much noise takes significant resources—resources that we rely on our support of Corporates. These are open to organisations (for-profit and not-for-profit) with interests in the areas of cybersecurity, critical infrastructure protection, disruptive technologies to support the work of the Centre and participate in its activities, including events developed with the specific interests of its corporate members in mind, including roundtable discussions on key policy and regulatory issues and regularly scheduled off-the-record events.

Your support will help fund research (general or project-specific), meeting series, fellowships, publications, educational programming, communications, amongst other activities.
