As a Member of the European Parliament and Chair of the Committee on Security and Defence, she shapes the debate on Europe\u2019s defence capabilities, the future of NATO, support for Ukraine and the strategic sovereignty of the European Union.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-dr-marie-agnes-strack-zimmermann-lecture-topics\">Dr. Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann \u2013 Lecture topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Europe at a turning point<\/strong><br>Why security, defence capabilities and political resolve are becoming key issues for Europe\u2019s future.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Security and Freedom<\/strong><br>How democracies stand their ground against external threats, hybrid attacks and internal insecurity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Europe\u2019s Strategic Sovereignty<\/strong><br>Why Europe must become more independent in defence, technology, energy and digital infrastructure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Defence Tech, Cybersecurity and Digital Resilience<\/strong><br>How new technologies are transforming the security architecture and why digital infrastructure is becoming a critical line of defence.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Ukraine, NATO and the Future of European Security<\/strong><br>What the war against Ukraine means for Germany, Europe and the transatlantic partnership.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Leadership in Times of Crisis<\/strong><br>Why a clear stance, communication and decision-making ability are crucial in politics, business and society.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Before moving to Brussels and Strasbourg, she was a Member of the German Bundestag and Chair of the Defence Committee. She led the FDP as its lead candidate in the 2024 European elections. Today, she is Head of the FDP delegation in the European Parliament, a member of the FDP Executive Committee and a member of the Bureau of the Renew Europe Group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Strack-Zimmermann is known for her clear words, strategic analysis and a European perspective on security. She combines traditional defence and foreign policy with the key issues of the future: technology, digitalisation and industrial capability. For her, security has long since ceased to be merely a military issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann: \u201cWithout resilient digital infrastructures, cyber security, innovative defence technology, a robust European defence and technology base, and key technologies from Europe, there can be no genuine sovereignty.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In her talks, Dr. Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann discusses the new reality of Europe\u2019s security policy: the threat posed by authoritarian systems, the lessons to be learnt from Russia\u2019s war of aggression against Ukraine, the need for Europe to be able to act, and the question of how Germany and Europe can defend their freedom, democracy and economic strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She is direct, outspoken and easy to understand. She analyses complex geopolitical developments, highlights political failures and sets out the decisions that are now needed to ensure that Europe remains capable of acting in the areas of security, technology and defence policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why book Dr. Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann brings security policy expertise, a sense of European responsibility and clear communication to the stage. She speaks on topics that directly affect businesses, institutions and society: security, freedom, resilience, technology and geopolitical capacity to act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her talks are relevant for executives, trade associations, security and technology policy conferences, industry and defence tech events, European forums, and events focusing on transformation, resilience and strategic sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann is married, mother of three children and a motorcyclist.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann, MEP \u2013 Chair of the Committee on Security and Defence in the European Parliament Dr. Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":127633,"menu_order":0,"template":"","tags":[],"speaker-category":[16598,16588,16607,16593,16594,16591,16596],"speaker-topic":[16637,16615,16620,16621,16619,16626,16630,16623,16663,16624,16608,16636],"speaker-type":[16667,16665],"speaker-gender":[16669],"speaker-language":[16572,16571],"class_list":["post-127643","speaker","type-speaker","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","speaker-category-celebrities","speaker-category-digitalisation-technology","speaker-category-economy-politics","speaker-category-globalisation","speaker-category-innovations-mega-trends-future","speaker-category-leadership","speaker-category-new-at-premium-speakers","speaker-topic-crisis-management","speaker-topic-cyber-crime-cyber-security","speaker-topic-europe","speaker-topic-european-union-brexit","speaker-topic-event-happening","speaker-topic-global-trends","speaker-topic-industry-4-0","speaker-topic-leadership-4-0","speaker-topic-next-generation","speaker-topic-society","speaker-topic-usa","speaker-topic-war-peace","speaker-type-interview-guest","speaker-type-keynote-speaker","speaker-gender-woman","speaker-language-english","speaker-language-german"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.5 (Yoast SEO v27.5) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann &#8211;
