Awareness-building session on HCoC in Prague

On 4 June 2014, the FRS organised, on behalf of the European Union, an awareness-building session in Prague about dual-use technology and knowledge transfer issues in order to prevent them in the field of ballistic missiles. The session allowed considering both trends in the technology transfer for ballistic missiles and what could be promoted to prevent it at an early stage. This workshop gathered experts from scientific, space and industry communities of HCoC subscribing and non-subscribing States.
