International

The International sector connects allies and foreign companies to new and emerging markets.

Our International experts accelerate client pathways toward the development of institutional frameworks, policy directives, and capabilities necessary for sovereign forces.

Where We Lead

Our team brings decades of experience inside the organizations that define international defense cooperation, from NATO headquarters and U.S. embassies to the Pentagon’s international affairs and security cooperation agencies.

We ensure that investment decisions, technology choices, and integration strategies serve the nation’s requirements. When engagements require specific domain expertise, we integrate partners from our space, air, cyber, and financial advisory teams to deliver comprehensive, multi-domain solutions.

Our focus is simple: strengthen the partnerships that underpin collective security and create the market access that sustains them.
