2. An Invitation to Defence Exports 2016
Dear Colleague,
It is with great pleasure that I invite you to participate in the 11th annual
Defence Exports conference convening on 28th-29th September 2016 in
Amsterdam, The Netherlands.
With updates to ITAR, ECR, EAR and OFAC, continuous amendments to
European export controls and emerging challenges in compliance, the
demand to fully understand the updated controls has never been greater.
This conference encourages deep discussion to discuss how export
controls amendments will impact industry and whether these changes
will provide potential solutions to the challenges faced. I believe Defence
Exports 2016 is the perfect environment for such a forum, hence providing
my support behind the conference as chairman.
We would ask you to pay particular attention to our conference agenda
which has been put together with great care to give you the very best
opportunity to benchmark and learn from subject matter experts. We
have invited only the most senior and well respected directors of arms
control departments and international trade compliance professionals,
and this seniority is a demonstration of the support for this critical meeting.
I am looking forward to meeting you in September 2016 with many other
likeminded individuals to ensure you too can benefit from this unique
event.
Yours Sincerely,
Gary Stanley, President, Global Legal Services

The EU Intra-Community Transfers - Moving
Forward Through Greater Harmonisation
Overview of workshop:
As requested by the Directive in intra-EU transfers of defence-related products,
the European Commission currently evaluates how the Directive is implemented
in EU Member States and whether it works efficiently. It will also evaluate to what
extent the Directive met its objectives and whether it could, ultimately, contribute to
opening up supply chains across Europe, foster industrial cooperation and improve
security of supply. Later this year and on the basis of the study, the Commission will
report to the European Parliament and the Council of the EU on the functioning of
the Directive. The workshop will focus on the conclusions and recommendations
drawn from this thorough assessment. The Commission will explain what it did or
proposes to do to address issues identified. Representatives from Member States
authorities and industry are invited to share their experiences concerning the
implementation and application of the Directive, and to discuss proposals to
improve the transfer of defence-related products within the EU.
Why you should attend:
Practitioners from Member States authorities dealing with the practical aspects
of export control of defence products and industry representatives using the new
licensing system introduced by the Directive are best suited to explain how the
Directive works, and what could be done to make it more effective.

About the workshop host:
Sylvia Kainz-Huber is Deputy Head of the Defence, Aeronautic and Maritime Industries Unit at the European Commission’s Directorate General for Enterprise and Industry
since July 2013. She joined the unit just when the Commission was about to present its action plan to support the competitiveness of the European Defence and security
sector. This action plan formed one of the two input documents for the discussion on the future of the CSDP and Europe’s defence industry at the European Council in
December 2013. It highlighted the full implementation of the EU Directive on the intra-EU transfers of defence-related products as a key priority. Following a very positive
reaction from European Heads of States and Governments, the Commission presented in June this year a more detailed roadmap explaining how it intends to implement
its action plan in collaboration with other EU actors, Member States and industry. Before taking up her current responsibilities, Sylvia Kainz-Huber was Deputy Head of
the unit responsible for the European space policy where she focused on issues related to space and security. Prior to that, she dealt with horizontal aspects of the EU’s
industrial policy, the Directorate-General’s relations to other EU institutions, and SME policy. Her career in the European Commission also included posts in the Directorate-
General for Research and Development where she dealt with SME access to the EU’s Research Framework Programme. Before joining the European Commission 1995,
Sylvia Kainz-Huber worked with Siemens central business administration division and as journalist specialising in ICT.

Terms and Conditions of Booking: We reserve the right to decline any booking for an event
Payment: If payment is not made at the time of booking, then an invoice will be issued and must be paid
within 14 days from the date of the invoice. If payment has not been received before the event credit card
details will be requested and payment taken before entry to the event. Bookings within 7 days of event
require payment on booking. We are unable to allow a delegate to attend an event if payment has not
been received. Access to the Document Portal will not be given until payment has been received.
Substitutions/Name Changes: If you are unable to attend you may nominate, in writing, another delegate to
take your place at any time prior to the start of the event. Two or more delegates may not ‘share’ a place
at an event. Please make separate bookings for each delegate.
Cancellation: If you cancel the delegate’s attendance at least 28 days prior to the event and are unable to
send a replacement delegate, we will refund or credit (depending on whether payment has already been
received by us) 50% of the fee minus a £50 administration charge within 14 working days of you requesting
such in writing provided there are no other outstanding sums due to SMi from your organisation. If you cancel
the delegate’s attendance less than 28 days prior to the event and are unable to send a replacement
delegate, you shall remain liable for payment of the fee in full and will not be entitled to any refund. In
such circumstances, the delegate shall be entitled to access to the document Portal at no additional cost.
Due to the interactive nature of the Briefings we are not normally able to provide documentation in these
circumstances. We cannot accept cancellations of orders placed for Documentation or the Document
Portal as these are reproduced specifically to order. If we have to cancel the event for any reason, then we
will make a full refund immediately, but disclaim any further liability.
Alterations: It may become necessary for us to make alterations to the content, speakers, timing, venue or
date of the event compared to the advertised programme.
Liability: We will not be liable for any loss of profit, loss of earnings, loss of anticipated savings, loss of revenue,
loss of goodwill or for any indirect or consequential loss that you may suffer and which is caused by the event,
the event material and/or the website.
The Contract is governed by and will be understood in accordance with English law.
