China has presented unprecedented business opportunities as well as unique challenges over the past few decades. And this dynamic landscape will further intensify in the new normal of COVID-19. This two-credit course will provide an overview of the underlying policy, economic and legal frameworks, highlight recent developments on IP protection and enforcement, antitrust and other regulatory compliances in particular. Guest speakers (in-house counsel and law firm practitioners) will share their experiences from doing business in connection with China, as well as offer best practices on culture intelligence and negotiation skills needed to be successful. The course will also explore growing areas that may lead to robust opportunities in China.
