About the CWI Lectures 2025
We are pleased to announce that the CWI Lectures 2025 will be dedicated to secure computation. This event serves as a prominent forum for cutting-edge talks and in-depth discussions, bringing together top researchers from around the world.
In an era defined by massive data generation and digitalization, security and privacy in computation have become more vital than ever. As society becomes more reliant on data-driven technologies, a key question emerges:
How can we extract valuable insights from vast volumes of data without compromising sensitive or confidential information?
This year’s lectures will explore this challenge from multiple angles. Leading experts will delve into topics including data privacy, hardware-enhanced mechanisms, secure multi-party computation, formal methods, and database security.
Attendees can look forward to engaging presentations that not only highlight current challenges but also propose innovative solutions and future directions for secure computation research. The lineup includes distinguished speakers from MIT, KU Leuven, ETH Zurich, and prominent Dutch universities, ensuring a diverse and international perspective.
Whether you are a researcher, practitioner, or student, the CWI Lectures offer a unique opportunity to gain deep insights into one of the most pressing technological issues of our time. We invite you to join us in Amsterdam on 20 November 2025 for a day of knowledge exchange, inspiration, and networking at the forefront of secure computation.
