Defence & Security
International Defense and Security: Integrated legal counsel for a sector of growing strategic, technological, and regulatory importance.
The strengthening of European strategic autonomy, the growth of investments in Defense and Security, the increasingly dual-use nature of equipment and technologies, and the rise in regulatory requirements are profoundly transforming the sector. Companies in the defense industry, critical technologies, cybersecurity, and strategic infrastructure now face new challenges, particularly in public procurement, import/export controls, compliance, sanctions regimes, interaction with ITAR, protection of sensitive information, and international industrial alliances.
