Aerospace industry client on obtaining government funding seeks to, while minimizing the risk of WTO complaints, with a focus on reviewing communications and lobbying strategies

Fasken provided legal advice on WTO issues related to government funding for the aerospace industry. The client sought Fasken's strategic advice to obtain government funding while mitigating (and if possible, eliminating) the risk of WTO complaints. In this context, Fasken reviewed communications with government officials, lobbying strategies, government funding opportunities, and other relevant documents to identify and mitigate (and if possible, eliminate) legal risks. Government funding is crucial for the company's R&D and market responsiveness, but it also raises WTO litigation concerns.
