About
With exclusively and personally invited delegates, The-C2 provides a bespoke experience for leaders in security and threat intelligence by enabling frank discussions and providing access to international leaders in threat intelligence.
The-C2 threat intelligence conference pools invaluable experiences and expertise from across the globe to identify the developments in cyber threats and evolving mitigation measures.
The-C2 is hosted by SE Labs, the world’s leading security testing lab. Its unique position in the industry provides a route to understanding both the developing threat landscape and the evolving security measures for defending against attackers.
The conference’s focus is very much on peer-to-peer, trusted conversations.
The Themes
The 2026 event will focus on these three key areas
- Resilience: Thriving Through Disruption
How leaders prepare for, withstand, and recover from the crises that test business survival. - Securing the Supply Chain: Trust Beyond Your Walls
Building confidence in the partners, suppliers, and systems that power your business. - Owning the Risk: Leadership, Liability and Foresight
Helping leaders turn intelligence into foresight, meet rising accountability, and take ownership of cyber risk.

The venue
The-C2 Club House
The-C2 is held annually at Merchant Taylors’ Hall, London
Our venue is key to the character of The-C2
This security conference is for security leaders. There is no better place to host such an event than at Merchant Taylors’ Hall.
For over 700 years it has hosted gatherings for key figures in our medieval and modern history.
The Merchant Taylors’ Company was formalised by royal charter in 1327 and has occupied the same site on Threadneedle Street since at least 1347. It is the only ancient Livery Company to remain on its original site. Through history many noblemen, some noblewomen and several Kings of England have entered its ranks as honorary freemen.
The Company has enjoyed royal patronage over the years; along with admitting many royals into the Company. Edward III (1327-77) and Henry VII (1485-1509) were admitted as members of the fraternity. More recently, both the late Queen Mother and the late Princess Diana were made honorary Merchant Taylors.
Through history Merchant Taylors has continued to play a prominent part in City life, within an ever-changing political and social landscape. Attendees of The-C2 join the ranks of several Kings and Queens of Britain, Mayors of London and a host of other historical figures (as well as Harry Potter).
