About the Course
Introduction
This CLE course will provide guidance to counsel representing companies doing business in China on approaches for protecting and enforcing trade secret rights.
Description
As U.S. companies continue to expand business in China, protecting trade secrets remains a significant concern. While many transactions start with the signing of a non-disclosure agreement (NDA), unless these are drafted properly, there can be unnecessary complications during business operations or if the relationship ends in dispute. Resolution proceedings before Chinese or US courts can vary significantly and care must be taken at the outset to think through possible exit strategies and remedies.
Listen as our panel of IP attorneys with experience in China examines the challenges of trade secret enforcement in China and how to overcome those challenges. The panel will discuss measures that can be taken to protect trade secrets and prevent infringement.
