Each year, the Munich Security Conference brings together international leaders from politics, the military, business and academia to discuss global power shifts, strategic risks and the future of the international order. Many of these debates are shaped by individuals with whom we collaborate closely - voices that connect different perspectives and help to interpret complex developments.
Diplomacy and Strategic Dialogue
Christoph Heusgen, who was a foreign and security policy advisor to Chancellor Angela Merkel for many years and most recently chaired the Munich Security Conference, advocates a security policy dialogue that clearly identifies tensions while keeping channels of communication open.
Wolfgang Ischinger, who chaired the conference for many years, transformed it into a global platform for strategic understanding. In his speeches, he analyses geopolitical dynamics and outlines the role Europe can play in an increasingly fragmented world order.
Security Policy and the Military Dimension
Carlo Masala, Professor of International Politics at the University of the Bundeswehr Munich, is one of the most respected security policy analysts in the German-speaking world. His assessments combine academic precision with clear, accessible language.
Florence Gaub, Director of the Research Division at the NATO Defence College in Rome, analyses current developments in security and defence policy, highlighting the strategic options they create for politics and society.
Geo‑Economics and the International Order
Pippa Malmgren, former Special Assistant to President George W. Bush, focuses on the economic dimension of global security. She describes how geopolitical tensions, financial markets, and technological disruptions are interlinked—and why economic resilience has become a key component of any security strategy.
Sigmar Gabriel, former Foreign Minister and Vice Chancellor, brings a political perspective that connects foreign, security, and industrial policy. His analyses demonstrate how closely economic interests and strategic stability are intertwined.
A Comprehensive Understanding of Security
The Munich Security Conference exemplifies the need to view security more broadly in the current era, taking into account military, economic, technological and societal factors. Our speakers address these interdependencies. They interpret international developments, clearly identify risks, and help organisations gain strategic orientation.
