We all understand the extra territoriality of US Defence Controls but are you fully up to date on what is taking place ‘across the pond ’? In Europe sanctions and export controls are forcing themselves onto the corporate compliance agenda as never before. Changes to the EU’s Dual Use list came into effect last December particularly for the control of machine tools, avionics technology, spacecraft equipment and civil UAVs but also removed from control some encrypted information-security products. The need for keeping up to date has never been so important. By working closely with our US and EU clients we understand the issues you are working with and have produced a program which over two days will give you a much firmer understanding and a way forward.

Tired of attending conferences full of hot air and little substance with speaker lists acting as delegates? Nielsonsmith does things differently. Our tried and tested model is unique in the conference industry with expert speakers giving in depth presentations to a room full of peers there to discuss debate and enter into dialogue. Often lively and always informative our conferences break the age old ‘death by power point’ cycle of dull box-ticking and ensure our delegates, speakers and sponsors leave with new perspectives and networks.

A good conference is built on delegate participation, at Nielsonsmith we strive to build a platform where the delegate can openly discuss the matter at hand in a room full of peers. In-depth presentations with extended Q&A time to get the answers uppermost in your mind. 

We will be achieving this again in Washington D.C. this year.
