Paladin Capital Group, the cyber and advanced technologies investor announces its partnership with Campus Cyber, initiated in 2022 by the President of the Republic of France.
Paladin Capital supports the mission of Campus Cyber to bring together digital security actors in a collaborative space to protect society and promote French excellence in the field.
Security-by-design mindset
Founded in 2001, Paladin Capital was one of the first investors to recognise the need for coordination between international private and public sectors to support technologies with a security-by-design mindset.
Michael Steed, Paladin’s Founder and Managing Partner, said, “We are living in a digital-first society. Advancing, sustaining, and defending critical infrastructure requires both innovation and investment. We applaud the energy and vision that President Macron’s government has put behind its cybersecurity strategy, with Campus Cyber at its core.”
