For all business professionals involved in contract practice
With the rapid advancement of digitalization, opportunities for information sharing between companies have dramatically increased. In various situations such as considering new businesses, business alliances, M&A, and outsourcing system development, the disclosure of confidential information is required, and the importance of Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) has become higher than ever before.
On the other hand, NDAs tend to be underestimated as "standardized contracts," and there are many cases where they are concluded without sufficient consideration. As a result, not only do they fail to achieve the expected effect when information leakage actually occurs, but troubles frequently arise where the company itself is placed in a disadvantageous position.
Especially in recent years, the legal environment surrounding the protection of trade secrets has changed significantly. In addition to amendments to the Unfair Competition Prevention Act and strengthening of the Personal Information Protection Act, regulatory enhancements from the perspective of economic security have made the legal factors that companies must consider more complex. It is crucial to grasp these overall regulations and design and confirm contract contents that are suitable for the company's information management system.
This webinar explains the essence of NDAs, along with practical points and case studies that tend to cause problems in practice. It broadly covers topics from methods of defining confidential information, setting retention periods, concepts of damages, effectiveness of injunctions, to the relationship with the Trade Secret Protection Act, which has attracted attention in recent years, providing perspectives necessary for reviewing and drafting NDAs.
Our speaker is lawyer Naofumi Fujikawa, who has experience in contract review in both Japan and the UK, and has also handled global legal affairs in Asia and Europe. Based on his experience with various types of contracts in corporate legal practice, he will deliver practical know-how that can be utilized in actual contract drafting and negotiation.
We invite you to participate in this webinar as an aid to building a system that minimizes corporate information leakage risks through appropriate NDA design and enables safe business collaboration.
