The Global CyberPeace Summit 2026 will unite global stakeholders to tackle the challenge of Trust & Safety in the digital age. It aims to foster collective action for a safer cyberspace amid rising online harms, AI risks, and cybercrime.
Positioned as the largest global multi-stakeholder platform on Trust & Safety, the Summit will convene governments, parliamentarians, law enforcement agencies, diplomats, defence leaders, technology platforms, industry, academia, civil society and everyday internet users to advance collective action for a safer, more resilient cyberspace.
At a time when online harms, cybercrime, AI risks, misinformation, and attacks on critical infrastructure are escalating worldwide, Trust & Safety has moved from a technical concern to a core pillar of national security, democratic resilience, and social well-being. The Global CyberPeace Summit 2026 places Trust & Safety at the heart of its agenda embedding it across policy, technology, law enforcement, diplomacy, defence, and industry.
A Collaborative Approach to Digital Trust
"Trust in digital systems is no longer implicit. It must be designed, governed, and protected collaboratively," said a Summit spokesperson. "The Global CyberPeace Summit provides the scale and structure required to do exactly that."
Summit Structure and Key Tracks
The Summit will feature a 1500+ delegate Trust & Safety Plenary (Netizen Townhall) alongside multiple high-level parallel tracks, including: - Trust & Safety Plenary and Netizen Townhall - Parliamentary Track with Members of Parliament and policymakers - Cyber Diplomacy & Internet Governance Track - Law Enforcement & Cybercrime Track - Defence & Strategic Security Track - Critical Infrastructure & Industry Track - Technical & Quantum Security Track - Global Platform and Industry-led Sessions
These tracks will collectively explore how Trust & Safety intersects with AI governance, online child protection, cybercrime prevention, platform accountability, critical infrastructure protection, and international cooperation.
Delivering Practical Outcomes
Moving beyond discussion, the Summit is designed to deliver practical outcomes through: - Closed-door policy and ministerial roundtables - Capacity-building workshops for first responders and vulnerable communities - Law enforcement and judicial coordination sessions - Industry and technology demonstrations - Strategic dialogues on AI safety and future digital risks - Workshops, hackathons and Cyber Exercises - CyberPeace Honours
CyberPeace Exhibition: A Hub for Innovation
Running parallel throughout the day, the CyberPeace Exhibition will serve as a dynamic hub for Trust & Safety innovation, featuring: - Product launches in cybersecurity, AI safety, quantum technologies, and GovTech - Book launches and author signings on cyber law, policy, and digital governance - Government, industry, startup, and research showcases - Live demonstrations and solution pavilions
The Exhibition is designed to bridge the gap between policy intent and real-world implementation.
Fostering Shared Responsibility
The Global CyberPeace Summit 2026 underscores a simple but urgent truth: no single government, platform, or nation can secure cyberspace alone. By bringing together voices from the Global North and Global South, public and private sectors, and technical and policy communities, the Summit aims to foster shared responsibility, trust, and cooperation in shaping the digital future.
