Jamilia Grier, founder of ByteBao Group

A lawyer who has worked inside the systems.

Jamilia is a U.S.-qualified lawyer admitted in New York and Connecticut. Her experience spans more than two decades across export controls, technology, regulatory compliance, data, and international operations.

She has held senior trade-compliance responsibilities inside a major U.S. defense prime across Asia-Pacific, led global data and privacy operations for an international bank, and worked in China and Singapore before relocating to Dubai.

Her work today focuses on U.S. export controls under the EAR and ITAR, particularly where advanced technology, defense, the Gulf, and Asia intersect.

Jamilia speaks professional Mandarin and brings direct operating experience from China, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East to cross-border regulatory problems.

Global context without losing regulatory precision.

ByteBao's value is not just knowing the rule. It is understanding how the rule lands inside an operating company, government program, supplier relationship, or cross-border technology project.

That combination is particularly relevant where U.S.-origin technology is being received, used, transferred, or governed outside the United States.
