15–17 September 2026, Nice. Molfar Intelligence will join the Defence, Security and Resilience Investment Summit: Riviera 2026 as an event partner.
James Westlake, Commercial Director at Molfar UK, and Ievgeniia Bespalova, Chief Strategy Officer at Molfar Intelligence, will represent Molfar at the summit.
On Day 2, James will deliver a keynote session on frontline intelligence and counterparty risk in dual-use technology. Molfar Intelligence is also a partner of the Day 1 networking reception.
The DSR Investment Summit brings together investors, defence and dual-use companies, primes, buyers and government stakeholders to move investment and commercial opportunities towards execution.
For investors and defence-sector decision-makers, identifying an opportunity is only the first step. Ownership, sanctions exposure, supply-chain dependencies, leadership backgrounds and the evidence behind capability claims can materially change an investment or partnership decision.
Molfar Intelligence investigates those questions before capital is committed, contracts are signed or strategic relationships are formed.
Defence and dual-use investments often involve risks that standard KYC or a conventional commercial review will not surface.
Molfar Intelligence works with investors, defence companies and government organisations that need a clearer picture of the people, companies and networks behind an opportunity.
Our analysts examine ownership and control, hidden affiliations, sanctions and regulatory exposure, supply-chain relationships, management backgrounds and other risks relevant to investment, procurement and strategic partnerships.
The objective is straightforward: establish what stands up to scrutiny before you decide.
Day 2 — 17 September
11:00–11:30 | Deal Flow & Execution
James Westlake, Commercial Director at Molfar UK, will deliver the keynote session:
Frontline Intelligence & Counterparty Risks: Battle-Testing Dual-Use Tech
The session will focus on the intelligence and counterparty questions that matter when assessing dual-use technology and the companies behind it.
Molfar Intelligence is also a partner of the Day 1 networking reception.
The reception will bring together investors, defence and dual-use companies and other summit participants after the first full day of the programme.
James Westlake and Ievgeniia Bespalova will be available during the summit for conversations with investors, founders, defence companies and strategic partners.
Book a meeting if you are assessing a defence or dual-use company, investment target, supplier, technology partner or market where standard checks do not provide enough information to make the decision.
Our work is particularly relevant for investors, defence primes, founders, procurement teams, legal and compliance functions, corporate security teams and government stakeholders working across defence, security and strategic resilience.
Molfar Intelligence will be at the DSR Investment Summit: Riviera 2026 from 15–17 September 2026 at OceaNice Congrès in Nice, France.
We can schedule meetings with James Westlake and Ievgeniia Bespalova around the summit programme and partnership events.
