Connections Tech

Today, Bogdan Florea, Founder & Co-CEO of Connections, joins the News.ro Leaders Lounge conference “Cybersecurity – Protecting Businesses in the Digital Era” as a speaker.

His topic:
Secure by Design — the foundation of digital sovereignty

As AI accelerates and critical infrastructures become increasingly interconnected, cybersecurity can no longer be treated as a final checkpoint. It must become part of the system from the very beginning.

💬 “Digital sovereignty is written in code and measured at organizational level. Cybersecurity is not something you buy at the end — it is something you build from the very first line and continuously monitor over time.”

Bogdan will address:
▪ why cybersecurity starts with developers, not only with the CISO
▪ why secure coding should become a GovTech procurement standard
▪ why scaling NIS2 compliance requires more than traditional consulting

📺 The event will be broadcast live on Prima News, YouTube, News.ro and the News.ro page. Link in Comments👇

Thank you to everyone who joined today’s investor conference call!

We aimed to go beyond the obvious and explain the thinking behind our decisions, the foundation of our strategy, the opportunities we see ahead, and how we approach the future.

We were pretty technical on some of the topics, but sometimes hearing about processes in detail sheds light on the operational complexity of things🤓.

A few key takeaways from today’s discussion:

- What makes 2025 historic is our ability to reach financial records within a complex and challenging environment. We had good years before, but last year we had to balance profitability with strategic transformation and long-term positioning.

- For 2026 we stay focused on investing in AI and cybersecurity, maintain a strong public sector pipeline where we hold a leading position, expand across the UK, US, and European markets, and develop proprietary products with recurring revenue potential and higher margins

- Our teams are our strength - they understand the strategy and deliver real value to clients and partners every day

Looking ahead, there is still work to be done. We'll keep paying attention to opportunities, adapt and deliver exceptional quality.

Thank you for being part of the conversation.
