Our international Defence & Security team contributes to the global 2022 edition of 'Lexology: Getting the Deal Through: Defence & Security Procurement'

Bird & Bird's International Defence & Security team are delighted to have contributed to the global 2022 edition of 'Lexology: Getting the Deal Through: Defence & Security Procurement'. Our team has written the Global Overview and the UK chapters and Elizabeth Reid is contributing editor for the publication.

This annual publication provides excellent expert analysis of how government procedure works in this highly regulated sector and is an ideal tool for in-house counsel and commercial practitioners.

Upon reaching the end of a challenging 2021, the defence industry remained fairly well insulated when compared with commercial aerospace, with manufacturing remaining stable in 2021.

The outlook for 2022 looks strong as countries seek to defend their democratic institutions from strategic threats while reinforcing innovative efforts in science and technology. Our experts analyse all the hot topics affecting the industry, including emerging developments in technology, Brexit, COP26, a continued trend toward globalisation, export controls and intellectual property.
