EDSeQ Conference

EDSeQ Conference - Vienna 1

We are delighted to announce the inaugural EDSeQ Conference, to be held in Vienna in June. As the first official conference dedicated to The European Defence & Security Law & Policy Quarterly (EDSeQ), this flagship conference will bring together practitioners, policymakers, academics, industry representatives, and institutional stakeholders to engage with the evolving legal and policy framework governing European defence and security. 
 
Over the course of the conference, participants will discuss current and emerging issues at the intersection of defence, security, and procurement law, and reflect on how law and regulation can support an effective European defence posture and a deeper, more resilient European defence market. A mix of keynote speeches, panel discussions and interactive sessions will provide ample opportunity for exchange, networking, and in-depth dialogue. 
 
Participants receive a certificate upon participation. 
 
Further details on the conference theme, programme, and speakers will be announced soon.
