WHEN: FRIDAY 17 JUNE 2022 AT 09.00-12.30 CET WHERE: VIA TEAMS or IN PERSON AT MANNHEIMER SWARTLING, NORRLANDSGATAN 21, STOCKHOLM
We have updated the agenda with speakers including the European Commission speaking on export control and also other specialised lawyers of various EU jurisdictions.
Russia’s war on Ukraine has triggered an unprecedented coordinated response from the international community, with extensive sanctions regimes being introduced. A new security landscape is quickly evolving in Europe and has led to applications from Sweden and Finland to join NATO.
Following our webinar series on sanctions against Russia, Mannheimer Swartling invites you to an extended half-day conference with three panel sessions on sanctions and export controls, and an outlook on how these instruments will evolve in the future.
We are pleased to host this event together with specialised sanctions and export control lawyers from the international network AT+ICA (the European Association of Trade + Investment Control and Compliance Attorneys), who will share their experiences and the expected outlook from their respective jurisdictions. The three panel sessions will focus on how new alliances and security policy may affect the manner in which sanctions and export controls are used, and how this will affect business.
This will be a hybrid physical/virtual event, with a number of seats available in the auditorium of our Stockholm office on Norrlandsgatan 21, as well as a broadcasting via Teams for those who prefer to attend online. Please specify your preference when registering. Those attending via Teams will receive an email with a participation link and joining instructions shortly before the event.

Keynote Magnus Nordeus, Group Head of Trade Compliance, Ericsson Keynote Stephane Chardon, Head of Sector – Trade & security - export control, European Commission
The EU’s new dual-use regulation indicates a departure from the multilateral approach and brings the EU’s wider policy of strategic autotomy into focus. The EU’s sanctions against Russia introduced a new type of export control list, expanded in collaboration with the US. The EU and US have also recently announced further collaboration in the Trade and Technology Council.
This panel will discuss how rules are expected to evolve in relation to strategic goods, such as emerging technologies, and how this will affect international business operations.

| 11.30-12.30 | SESSION THREE – Sanctions, a new era for strategic economic policy
The comprehensive international sanctions response against Russia has led to many unexpected challenges for businesses – ranging from suspension and divestments – to conflict of laws and the risk of breaching sanctions. At the same time, the EU and G7 have announced coordinated efforts to implement sanctions with a freeze and seize task force.
This panel will discuss lessons learned and also the new challenges that businesses will need to consider in their compliance efforts going forward, beyond Russia.
