Miller Canfield’s next Virtual Aerospace and Defense Luncheon will explore “Opportunities and Challenges for Defense Contractors in Qatar” on Tuesday, March 15, from noon to 1:30 p.m. via Zoom.
During the Jan. 31 visit of His Highness Sheikh Tamim Al-Thani to the White House, President Joe Biden designated Qatar as a Major Non-NATO Ally.
Biden noted in his message to Congress that “this designation [is] in recognition of Qatar’s many years of contributions to U.S.-led efforts in the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility and in recognition of our own national interest in deepening bilateral defense and security cooperation with the State of Qatar.”
Miller Canfield’s program will feature a discussion by three regional experts on the benefits and challenges of doing business in Qatar, with a particular focus on the security and defense industries. Our expert panelists will include:
• Juan Catril serves as the commercial advisor at U.S. Embassy in Doha, Qatar, promoting U.S. solutions and providing support to U.S. companies seeking to do business in Qatar.
Catril has previously served as a commercial specialist at the U.S. Embassy in Santiago, Chile, where he was also a professor and lecturer.
• Azeem Mohiuddin is the practice leader of Fragomen’s office in Doha, where he is responsible for the provision of corporate immigration advice and support to organizations operating in, or seeking to set up, in Qatar.
Prior to heading up the Qatar office, Mohiuddin spent eight years in Fragomen’s London office, where he specialized in UK immigration law.
• Lana Yaghi, co-resident director of Miller Canfield’s Qatar office, focuses her practice on corporate and commercial matters in a broad range of industries, including aviation, cybersecurity and defense. She regularly advises U.S. and foreign clients on their cross-border business activities, particularly in connection with the establishment of operations and negotiation of commercial arrangements in the State of Qatar.
