A holistic and pragmatic approach to trade secrets and corporate data protection
From the pages of leading business and trade press all over the world, the threat of international trade secret theft and economic espionage has become a hot topic. Particularly in today’s highly-mobile, competitive marketplace in Asia, the issue for companies, no matter size or industry, is becoming when data theft will occur rather than if it will occur. The only way a company can protect its valuable data is to start taking pre-emptive steps immediately. The session will discuss strategies to protect trade secrets in a holistic, proactive and cost-effective approach, including key factors of risk assessment, preventative measures to minimize the risk of data loss and business disruption, potential pitfalls in trade secret investigations, and legal remedies available both locally and overseas in the event of data theft.

Leveraging Legal Technology to Transform IP into Business SuccessTM
With many Asian countries continuing to develop their home-grown innovations and more advanced technologies, the protection of IP has become a more critical issue region-wide. As regional patent filing increases, leading innovation markets such as Japan, China, South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan have become more attuned to deploying legal technology in the corporate space. Many large companies in these markets are now using the latest technology to help manage the evaluation and protection of their IP assets. They recognize that IP protection strategies need a strategic focus and must form the centerpiece of their global approach.
​
This session will highlight how our global Anaqua User Community leverage unique analytics and collaboration capabilities to develop IP assets that directly support their business objectives. The integration of public and private data analytics enables IP executives to easily track their organizations’ level of innovation, evaluate the strength of their portfolio, monitor the competitive landscape, and identify opportunities to leverage their IP to transform the business.
