Centre for Governance of Emerging Technologies

The Centre for Governance of Emerging Technologies explores the critical intersections of security, technology, and global politics. Its work addresses how digital innovation reshapes geopolitics, with a particular focus on disinformation within the EU and the stigmatization of scientific knowledge in political processes. The Centre examines evolving configurations of cybersecurity and the role of technology in enabling or countering foreign interference. Space security is another key pillar, where research investigates the democratization of space technologies and the gradual erosion of states’ traditional dominance. A strong focus is placed on planetary defense, including the governance challenges of space mining.
