Is your infrastructure truly resilient? Join Derek Marinos, Peter Warren, and Torsten Bernström as they explore how AI and IT/OT integration define modern digital sovereignty.

As energy, utility, and defense sectors converge, physical borders are being replaced by digital ones. This episode breaks down the "cardiovascular system" of national infrastructure and why traditional security silos are now a liability.

Key Takeaways:

• IT/OT Convergence: Why separate security teams often result in "no security" at all.
• Real-Time AI: Shifting from retrospective analysis to real-time situational awareness and decision support.
• The Speed Advantage: Using defense models to observe and act faster than adversaries.
• Governed Data: Treating data as a strategic asset to manage non-linear supply chain risks.
• Unified Resilience: Why sustainability and security are two sides of the same coin.

Readiness is the new measure of security. Learn how to build trust across systems, people, and data in an age of transition.

Energy sovereignty is no longer optional—it’s a matter of national security.

In this episode of Energy Transition Talks, Derek Marinos speaks with CGI leaders Peter Warren (Energy & Utilities) and Torsten Bernström (Defense) about how resilient energy systems, secure supply chains and digital sovereignty are reshaping defense readiness and economic competitiveness.

The discussion explores why reliable energy underpins total defense, how decentralized generation and SMRs reduce geopolitical risk, and why energy and cyber resilience now form one interconnected security ecosystem.
