Doing Business in China and Protecting your IP. An October 18, 2016 Webinar
On October 18, I will be putting on a webinar, Doing Business in China: Structuring Your Deal and Protecting Intellectual Property. This webinar is aimed mostly at lawyers and it is eligible for CLE credits.
It is being put on by Commercial Law Advisors and they describe it as follows:
Who Should Attend? Corporate counsel, in-house counsel, attorneys advising companies or organizations, intellectual property attorneys.
Companies often cannot afford not to do business in China. Whether producing goods there or selling to the Chinese market, companies that engage in business with Chinese partners need up-to-date legal advice on how to protect their technology and other intellectual property (IP) interests from being counterfeited, pirated, or otherwise misappropriated. As IP theft is one of the top issues facing businesses operating in China, there are substantial risks companies must identify and address proactively to protect their valuable IP assets. Deals made in China can threaten IP rights not just in China, but in markets around the world. Understanding the Chinese IP landscape and how to manage the pertinent issues can go a long way to safeguarding your client’s valuable IP interests.
Please join Dan Harris as he explores the nuts and bolts of constructing a good business deal with a Chinese partner, what your agreements should include, and how to manage the Chinese IP rights framework to minimize your client’s IP-related risks.

This webinar will cover:
How to choose a good Chinese partner
Identifying the IP assets that need protection
How to structure your deal
Drafting your deal papers

I hope to “see” you there.
We will be discussing the practical aspects of Chinese law and how it impacts business there. We will be telling you what works and what does not and what you as a businessperson can do to use the law to your advantage. Our aim is to assist businesses already in China or planning to go into China, not to break new ground in legal theory or policy.
