SUMMARY:IBA Bar Breakfast hosted by the Ukrainian Bar Association
DESCRIPTION:Ukraine at the Forefront of Defense Innovation: Investment\, 
 Partnership and Opportunity\n\nThe Ukrainian Bar Association is pleased 
 to announce the next edition of its traditional Open Ukraine Breakfast\,
  held annually during the IBA Annual Conference.\n\nEach year\, Open Ukr
 aine brings together legal professionals\, business leaders\, investors\
 , government representatives and international partners to discuss the i
 ssues shaping Ukraine's future and the role of the legal community in ad
 dressing them.\n\nDenmark has been at the forefront of a new model of de
 fence-industrial cooperation with Ukraine. In 2025\, it became the first
  country to enable a Ukrainian defence company to establish production a
 broad. Since 2024\, the Danish Model has helped channel approximately $3
  billion into Ukraine’s defence industry\, with contributions from Denma
 rk and other international partners. The funding has supported the produ
 ction of more than 200\,000 drones\, thousands of electronic warfare sys
 tems\, Ukrainian missiles and other defence equipment.\n\nThis Danish-Uk
 rainian partnership offers a compelling case study in how law\, capital 
 and industry can work together to accelerate defence innovation. It also
  reveals a new landscape of opportunities and challenges for internation
 al investors\, businesses and legal advisers.\n\nPROGRAMME\n\n08:00–08:1
