C5’s 2nd UK Edition

ITAR compliance forum

Thursday, March 22 to Friday, March 23, 2012
Grange St Paul's Hotel, London

During a time of regulatory reform, getting the latest information on ITAR Compliance, whether you’re a large, mid-sized or small entity, is critical to your bottom line!

Protecting your business from the harsh realities of the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR) violations requires vigilant implementation and monitoring of an effective compliance programme. Right now, as the US undergoes the Export Control Reform, regulations are changing, new exemptions are being released, and product classifications are changing. Anything less than the strictest of compliance can leave you vulnerable to catastrophic fines. Be the first to get valuable ITAR updates from the DDTC and gain competitive advantage over your peers.

As a company operating in Europe, you have the additional responsibility of complying with both local laws and ITAR, which can be daunting. These regulations are often in direct conflict with each other but you have to ensure that your company is adhering to ALL relevant export control regulations.

Reserve your seat today for the UK’s premier ITAR programme of the year! C5’s ITAR Compliance Forum: UK Edition will provide you with unmatchable access to top government officials, practical guidance on how to overcome even ITAR most challenging issues, and solutions for protecting your bottom line. Benefit from strategies designed to streamline your export compliance programmes, securing full compliance with all applicable regulations.

Each session will provide you with in-depth guidance from senior regulators, industry leaders and expert practitioners, who will share valuable insights in ITAR controls and best practices for fulfilling your requirements. Benefit from real life case studies, interactive scenarios and Q & A sessions.

Key Topics include:

  • Update on the US Export Control Reform presented by Robert Kovac
  • Classification under the USML, CCL and Strategic Control List: how to streamline your internal processes
  • Best practices for ensuring that you receive a licence that covers all of your requirements
