China has progressively stepped up enforcement of its anti-monopoly and data security regulations. On August 1, 2022, the amended Anti-Monopoly Law came into effect, prohibiting the use of certain technologies to engage in anti-competitive behaviour, raising the maximum fines for violations, and curbing abuse by administrative organizations. When it comes to data security, China has prioritised data protection, data privacy, and cybersecurity through a series of laws and regulations such as the Individual Information Protection Law. At this conference the speakers will focus on these two regulatory dimensions and discuss individual and corporate liabilities.

The regulatory environment is changing fast and non-compliance could expose a company to unforeseen risks, even civil and criminal penalties. For executives, directors, shareholders, and members of a corporation, it is imperative to have a clear understanding of the differences between corporate and individual liabilities and know how to mitigate the risk of individual liabilities.

Join in the annual Compliance Conference to gain insights and receive guidance on emerging compliance risks and solutions, implement best practices and strategies, and share ideas with senior legal and compliance professionals.

Multinational companies in China are facing more regulatory pressure on cybersecurity and data transmission in recent years. On one hand, China has stepped up its cyber-related legislation with an unprecedented speed. On the other hand, the Coronavirus outbreak, by forcing companies and individuals to rely on online tools and hybrid workplace, has further underlined the importance for enterprises to review its approach to cybersecurity.

Cybersecurity Law has brought heavy impact on the business community in China; particularly, cross-border data transfer requirements are likely to be thorny for companies. Foreign companies that previously had a global approach to cyber security and compliance are pressed to revise their regional cybersecurity compliance and their current cybersecurity practices.
The European Chamber is delighted to invite subject matter experts to decipher the Chinese regulation on cross-border data flows, and cover how to comply with the increasing needs for cyber security defense and dynamic regulations, last but not least share some practical solutions to cybersecurity.
