The industrial and technology group CSG has become the General Partner of the 13th edition of the prestigious international security conference Our Security Cannot Be Taken for Granted, organised by Jagello 2000. The conference will take place on 5 March 2026 at the Ball Games Hall of Prague Castle and will once again provide a platform for an important debate on the future of Czech and European security.
Over more than a decade, the conference has established itself as the leading security forum in the Czech Republic. Each year, it brings together senior representatives of the state, security services, the armed forces, diplomacy and the defence industry. CSG is proud to be a long-standing partner of this event.
This year’s edition will focus on the strategic priorities of national security, developments in the current security environment and the role of modern defence technologies. The programme will feature expert panels on the future of the Czech defence industry, discussions on the Czech Republic’s internal and external security, and a political debate with representatives of parliamentary parties. President of the Czech Republic Petr Pavel will also deliver a speech.
The conference has traditionally hosted prominent international and domestic figures. Previous speakers have included NATO Secretaries General, senior members of the Czech government and security experts from across the transatlantic community. In 2024, when the Czech Republic commemorated 25 years since joining the North Atlantic Alliance, former President of the United States Bill Clinton attended as guest of honour, underscoring the international standing of the platform.
“The conflict in Ukraine, the transformation of the global security environment and the growing emphasis on Europe’s defence capabilities clearly demonstrate that investment in defence and technological sovereignty is essential. In recent years, CSG has significantly expanded its production capacities, strengthened cooperation with partners across NATO and the EU, and continued to invest in innovation across defence technologies. Supporting the Our Security Cannot Be Taken for Granted conference is a natural expression of our long-term pro-Western orientation and our responsibility towards the security of the Czech Republic and its allies,” said CSG spokesperson Andrej Čírtek.
“For more than a decade, the national security conference Our Security Cannot Be Taken for Granted has been the most prestigious domestic platform dedicated to discussing the security of the Czech Republic and its anchoring in the Euro-Atlantic area. It uniquely connects political leaders, the security community and the expert public. We greatly appreciate that CSG has served as General Partner for the sixth consecutive year. The Group is a strong supporter of transatlantic cooperation and, through concrete actions, contributes to strengthening the defence capabilities of the Czech Republic and our allies,” said Zbyněk Pavlačík, Chairman and Co-Founder of Jagello 2000.
CSG is one of the leading defence and industrial groups in the Western world. It plays a long-term role in modernising the defence capabilities of allied countries and is also a major supplier of equipment and ammunition to Ukraine in its defence against Russian aggression. At the same time, the Group continues to invest in expanding its production capacities in Europe and the United States, as well as in the development of advanced technologies in the fields of land systems, ammunition, aerospace and other strategic segments.
