In today`s cut-throat marketplace characterised by pre-dominantly multi-jurisdictional business transactions and information stored in a multitude of forms and sources, the protection of trade secrets and company data management have never been more important. In the absence of a standalone e-discovery law in Korea, the collection of electronic evidence has to be reconciled with strict trade secret laws such as the Unfair Competition Prevention Act and Trade Secret Protection Act. Therefore companies must establish their own robust processes and rules to ensure that company information is safeguarded and at the same time sufficient information access is provided in the case of cross-border investigations.
Featuring key government, in-house counsel and private practice experts, this conference offers a unique combination of perspectives on managing company information through the transactional lifecycle including the conclusion of business deals, the departure of former employees to competitors through to potential litigation cases. Bringing in-house counsels, IP professionals, compliance officers, data management leaders, and lawyers from the private and public sector under one roof, the event will firstly introduce the regulatory and legislative context of trade secret protection and e-discovery in Korea, while the second part will walk you through hands-on data management strategies applicable to your own operational processes
