Westcon-Comstor to strengthen Balkans cybersecurity ties at RISK Conference 2026
LONDON, UK – 23 April, 2026 – Westcon-Comstor, a global technology distributor specialising in cybersecurity, networking and hybrid cloud solutions, today announced its involvement in RISK Conference 2026, a leading regional cybersecurity event that brings together industry professionals, channel partners and technology leaders from across the Balkans.
Now in its twentieth year, RISK Conference has become a key meeting point for cybersecurity experts and channel decision makers from eight Balkans countries, providing a platform for knowledge exchange, collaboration and practical discussion on the trends and threats shaping cybersecurity today.
Westcon-Comstor’s participation and support for this year’s event follows its recent acquisition of specialist cybersecurity distributor REAL Security, which runs the RISK Conference and has grown it into the region’s most influential annual security gathering.
Taking place in Slovenia on 10-11 June, RISK Conference 2026 will bring together regional and global cybersecurity leaders for expert-led sessions, demonstrations and interactive experiences focused on real-world use cases, emerging AI-era threats and evolving security requirements.
Westcon-Comstor will be represented by senior leaders and cybersecurity specialists from across the business, alongside the newly integrated REAL Security team, providing attendees with opportunities to engage on partner enablement, technical expertise and how the channel can respond to fast-moving security challenges.
“RISK Conference plays a pivotal role in bringing the regional cybersecurity community together, allowing partners and customers to engage with a broad portfolio of solutions and expertise,” said Willem de Haan, Executive Vice President, Corporate Development at Westcon-Comstor. “Following our acquisition of REAL Security, we’re pleased to support an event that enables meaningful knowledge sharing and collaboration across the Balkans region and helps partners and vendors engage on the security priorities that matter most.”
“At its heart, RISK has always been about building practical connections across the region’s cybersecurity ecosystem,” said Renato Uhl, CEO and Co-Founder at REAL Security. “With Westcon-Comstor’s involvement and support, we look forward to bringing global perspectives and insights while keeping the focus on real challenges and tangible outcomes for Balkans-based partners and customers.”
