Panel Discussion: Conviction vs. Action: Is Sovereignty Still Mostly Talk?

October 26, 2026 / 11:00 am - 12:00 pm

Everyone agrees sovereignty matters. So why does so little happen? Daniel and the panel look at the gap between conviction and action: the first-mover problem, the real cost of taking back control, how AI changes the picture, and how to tell an exit plan on paper from one that actually works. Bring your questions, because the floor is yours at the end.
