EDTH x IHK-Exportakademie — Export Control in Dual Use and Defense Items

Join us for a webinar with Ivonne Paulus-Lins, Head of Academia at IHK Exportakademie, as we explore the regulatory landscape of export control in dual-use and defense technologies. To successfully implement the federal government's high-tech agenda and foster economic growth through technology transfer, particularly in the defence area, a solid understanding of the regulatory framework of export controls is essential to ensure that rapidly emerging technologies can be utilized in industry without encountering regulatory barriers too late in the process.The worldwide paradigm shift, particularly the war in Ukraine and now in the Middle East, Iran’s military nuclear activity, human rights violations, and military support for Russia in the war against Ukraine has led to a significant increase and tightening of international embargoes and sanctions. Export controls and embargos are crucial for enabling economic growth through technology transfer because they safeguard international security while upholding the rule of law, ensuring that the transfer and use of rapidly emerging technologies are conducted safely. During this webinar, we will explore: The fundamentals of export control regulationsThe role of export controls in dual-use and defence technologiesHow sanctions, embargoes, and shifting global security dynamics affect international technology transferWhy early understanding of export control frameworks is critical to avoid regulatory barriers for emerging technologiesHow export controls balance technological innovation, economic growth, and international security ​Bring your questions – we’d love to hear your thoughts!
