CAdFE breakfast with Oliver Väärtnõu, CEO of Cybernetica at the Résidence de France

On February 28, members of CAdFE (the Business Club for French speakers in Estonia) were graciously invited to the quarterly breakfast exclusively for members by His Excellency Emmanuel Mignot, the French Ambassador, at the Residence of France.
The guest of honor was Oliver Väärtnõu, CEO of Cybernetica and Vice-President of the Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry. This exclusive meeting provided a unique platform for CAdFE members to take part in cross-cutting discussions on Artificial Intelligence, data protection, Cybersecurity, digital identity and avenues for bilateral collaboration.

The breakfast at the French Residence was an excellent opportunity for CAdFE members to interact with His Excellency Emmanuel Mignot and Oliver Väärtnõu, who shared their perspectives on the development of information technologies and the partnerships between Estonia and France in this area.
Cybernetica’s CEO shared with guests a number of projects on which Cybernetica works on a daily basis, including data manipulation detection, the development of a data collection platform, and biometric identity verification . He also presented the EUCINF (EUropean Cyber and INFormation warfare toolbox) project, supported by the European Commission and conducted in cooperation with Airbus, on the creation of software to help manage fake news and cyber warfare.
A highlight of the meeting was Oliver Väärtnõu’s insightful analysis of the different approaches to artificial intelligence in France and Estonia.
As vice-president of the Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Oliver presented possible partnership opportunities between the Estonian Chamber of Commerce and Industry and CAdFE, once we officially become a France International Chamber of Commerce and Industry in the coming months.

At Mr Väärtnou’s invitation, a visit to Cybernetica will be organized for our members in early May.

Organized exclusively for CAdFE members by the French Embassy, this breakfast continues a local tradition for the future International Chamber of Commerce.

CAdFE expresses its gratitude to H.E. Emmanuel Mignot, Oliver Väärtnõu CEO of Cybernetica and Louise Dubrulle (Embassy Economic Attaché) and looks forward to future collaborations. The date of the next breakfast will be announced shortly.
