Our organization's activities relate to areas where our expertise in Ukraine intersects with the European Commission’s work on defense, security, resilience, and Ukraine related programs. Accordingly, the EU policies and initiatives relevant to our interactions with EU institutions include: The Security Action for Europe (SAFE) program for European defense and the ability of Ukrainian partners to work more efficiently with EU member states participating in the program. The EU Security and Defense Policy and related initiatives supporting capability development, resilience, and technological innovation within the EU and for partner countries. The European Defense Fund (EDF) and its calls and programs in which technological, industrial, and dual-use capabilities are developed. Our interactions with EU institutions may include: providing technical briefings or expertise upon request; participating in consultations or program related discussions; supplying non-confidential information on technology or capability developments; attending meetings or workshops organized by the Commission; and sharing views on how we see developments on the ground in Ukraine.

Additional Information
We confirm that our organization is a newly formed entity and has not yet closed accounts for a full financial year. Trident Forward has only been active since March 2025. As we have no previously closed financial period, we are unable to provide financial data for the prior year and therefore selected the “newly formed entity” option in the registration form.
