The eighth annual Copenhagen Democracy Summit will take place on May 13-14 at the iconic Royal Danish Playhouse. As autocrats strengthen their alliances and democracies become increasingly transactional, our challenge is to remember that freedom transcends all other differences. Strengthening democracy in this shifting world order requires bold innovation, deeper cooperation, and strategic investment in security and defense—key themes that will shape our 2025 summit. The Summit is an invite-only event, with invitations set to be distributed in the coming weeks.
