ITAR Tops the Agenda at Defence Exports 2010
International Traffic in Arms Regulations still a vital issue among defence exports professionals
The responsible and regulated trade of arms and defence goods continues to be at the forefront of the minds of governments, businesses, NGOs and institutions around the world. The key issues currently affecting and influencing defence exports are ITAR regulations and US export control reform. With serious penalties for non-compliance, the US system is vital to understand for any export professional with a desire to remain competitive, whilst also acting responsibly, in the global marketplace.
In October 2010, key figures from the US will come together in Brussels at SMi Group's Defence Exports to provide the latest essential updates. Providing information about ITAR and the US Export Control System is Robert Kovac, Acting Deputy Assistant Secretary and Managing Director, Defense Trade Controls, Directorate of Defense Trade Controls, USA. Joining him will be Kevin Wolf, Assistant Secretary for Export Administration, Department of Commerce and Anthony Aldwell, Deputy Director, Defence Technology Security Administration, Department of Defense.
Additional topics to be discussed at this conference include the planned reforms in the EU, which are aimed at easing bureaucratic barriers and creating a more open and transparent 'European defence equipment market' between member states. Discussing the intra-community transfer of defence goods at SMi's Defence Exports is Pierre-Arnaud Lotton, DG Enterprise, European Commission. The conference will also receive vital national updates from eight nations and will include an address on the Wassenaar Arrangement on Export Controls from Ambassador Sune Danielsson, Head of Secretariat, Wassenaar Arrangement.
