Securing Germany’s Underwater Lifelines

Monday 8 June 2026 · 10:00 to 11:00 CEST · Live online

 

Europe’s seabed carries its data, its energy, and a growing share of its security. After three SeaSEC trials in twelve months, the technology to monitor it has been proven. The open question is no longer whether it works, but how quickly it can move from trial to operational deployment, and who is responsible for making that happen.

Join Optics11, north.io, and SeaSEC for a 60-minute panel on the state of underwater security in Germany: what the latest trial in Rostock taught us, where the gap to full deployment still sits, and what it will take to close it at the same speed the threat is moving.

This is a high-level conversation between three perspectives, not a product presentation.

The panel

  • Paul Heiden, CEO, Optics11 (fibre-optic seabed sensing)
  • Jann Wendt, CEO, north.io (geospatial intelligence and maritime domain awareness)
  • Carine van Bentum, SeaSEC (policy and consortium-level coordination)
  • Moderated by Glenn Kitzen, Optics11

What we will cover

  • What the Rostock trial proved that earlier trials did not, and how the German Navy experienced it
  • How to move from successful trials to operational deployment, at the same speed as the threat is moving
  • Who owns underwater situational awareness, and what international collaboration is needed to reach the goals Germany has set
