Aerospace and space

Aerospace and space activities evolve at high speed: new air mobility (drones, eVTOL), low-carbon aviation, satellite constellations, space exploration… These strategic sectors combine cutting-edge innovation with heavy regulatory constraints.

Without specialised legal support, companies face major risks: export blocks (ITAR, EAR), tax penalties, unbalanced contracts, delayed financing rounds.

Legal Growth secures your aerospace and space operations, transforming regulatory and tax constraints into drivers of competitiveness and innovation.

financing requirements for many space programmes, dependent on robust legal and tax structures

1. International compliance and regulation

Aerospace and space actors are subject to strict technical and safety standards: equipment certification, environmental compliance (REACH, carbon standards), export controls (ITAR, EAR, EU regulations).
Any compliance failure can block a programme, trigger penalties or jeopardise a financing round.

Legal Growth supports manufacturers, equipment suppliers, airlines and space startups in contract drafting, certification processes and anticipation of regulatory changes.

2. Supply chain and strategic partnerships

In both aerospace and space, globalised value chains are highly sensitive to disruptions or disputes. Delays, logistical blockages or contractual imbalances can compromise multimillion-euro projects.

Legal Growth secures subcontracting, transport, cooperation and distribution agreements, ensuring operational continuity and protecting your margins in a multi-jurisdictional environment.

3. Financing and innovative projects

Aerospace and space projects require massive investments: low-carbon aircraft, space propulsion, satellite constellations, autonomous drones.
These financing rounds require strong legal structuring. Without it, technological and financial partnerships may fail or face requalification.

Legal Growth assists with joint-venture structuring, investor negotiations, and the securing of public and private financing to accelerate your projects.
