This hugely successful and highly praised event on US export controls regulations, which is jointly organised by EGADD and Squire Patton Boggs, will be celebrating its 17th Anniversary when it takes place in July 2024.

For this year, the event will, once again, also be organised in close partnership with BAE Systems. As a major, multinational company, BAE Systems has considerable practical experience in dealing with the challenges arising from ITAR and EAR compliance.

With very significant on-going developments underway in which the US Government is seeking to reduce the adverse impact of US export controls (and especially ITAR) on efforts to have closer engagement with close allies, such as the UK and Australia, this event will represent an excellent opportunity to receive an informed update on what is happening and where US export controls may be further evolving. It is intended to feature senior representation by officials from the most relevant parts of the US Government, with whom delegates can network and engage in informal surroundings.

Topics

Subjects to be covered over the three days include:

• US Export Controls Reform
• EAR and the 600-series
• US License Exemptions and OGELs for ITAR exports and reexports
