Wibu-Systems’ hybrid forum brings global experts, leading enterprises, and researchers together to address the next frontier of software protection and digital sovereignty. The event is focused on cybersecurity, digital licensing, regulatory readiness, and quantum resilience with speakers from Roche, SAP, KIT, Infineon, Rohde & Schwarz, and more.
July 2–3, 2025 – Inno Days 2025, hosted by Wibu-Systems, returns as a two-day hybrid event set to explore the strategic intersection of cybersecurity, licensing, and the future of IT infrastructure. Taking place at Wibu-Systems’ headquarters with the roundtable streamed globally, this high-level forum unites leading minds from industry, academia, and technology to address the digital transformations shaping business models and national security strategies.
Critical insights and actionable strategies around Cyber Resilience Act, AI Act and more
At a time of growing geopolitical tension, accelerated digitalization, and an imminent quantum computing shift, Inno Days 2025 offers critical insights and actionable strategies for stakeholders across the software and hardware sectors. The event opens with a dedicated networking dinner in Karlsruhe, setting the tone for a robust knowledge-sharing and collaboration experience. On July 3rd, participants will engage in a full-day program featuring keynote speeches, live demonstrations, and deep-dive panels. With speakers from Roche, SAP, KIT, Infineon, Rohde & Schwarz, and others, the event tackles emerging business opportunities in Asia, novel methods for license enforcement, and the direct implications of sweeping EU legislation such as the Cyber Resilience Act, AI Act, and NIS2 Directive.
Targeted for product managers, legal and compliance professionals, cybersecurity specialists, and executives navigating the increasingly complex global regulatory and technological terrain, Inno Days 2025 serves not only as a stage for Wibu-Systems’ own innovations − such as CodeMeter Protection Suite, a toolkit for encrypting and obfuscating software across platforms; CodeMeter License Central, the cloud-based backend for automating software license creation, deployment, and management; CodeMeter License Portal, the customizable self-service interface for license activation and entitlement handling; and the soon-to-be rolled out CodeMeter License Reporting, a data analytics module offering insight into how software is used − but as a dialogue-enabling arena to foster best practices and joint solutions.
