Engineering for Resilience: How Digital Engineering Shapes Europe’s Next Generation of Defense Systems

Europe is at a turning point. And engineering sits right at the center of it. Geopolitical tensions, fragile supply chains, and shifting alliances have made one thing painfully clear: Europe’s strategic resilience depends on technological sovereignty. Defense, long treated as a niche domain, has become a key driver of political, economic, and industrial change.

In this edition of Blueprint – The Digital Engineering Talk, we take a closer look at what this shift means in practice for engineers, technology leaders, and decision-makers. How can digital engineering, simulation, and software-defined development help connect industrial scale with digital agility? What does it take to build complex, high-tech defence systems under massive time pressure? And how can collaboration across this ecosystem actually work day to day?

At the heart of it all is a very practical challenge. Europe can build high tech. But how do we turn complex digital engineering into robust, deployable defence solutions – and who is able to deliver them at speed?

Join us for an open, grounded discussion about engineering realities, real trade-offs, and the role digital engineering plays in Europe’s defence resilience. Live from the CADFEM headquarters. Hosted by Sarah Yvonne Elsser.
