With the trend of economic globalization, China's policies on foreign investment and the list of industries open to foreign investment have undergone numerous changes. The implementation of the  Foreign Investment Law of the People's Republic of China ( hereinafter referred to as the “Foreign Investment Law" ) on January 1, 2020, replacing the original laws on three types of foreign-funded enterprises, has established a unified legal basis for foreign-funded enterprises, marking the formal convergence of domestic and foreign-funded enterprises in China's corporate governance. However, in practice, due to the differences in relevant regulations after the changes and the fact that a large number of foreign-funded enterprises are currently in the five-year transition period after the implementation of the Foreign Investment Law, there are new challenges in the compliance operation and management of foreign-funded enterprises in China. How to assist foreign-funded enterprises in China with conducting compliance management, including business expansion and corporate governance during establishment and operation, effectively avoiding legal risks and dealing with dispute resolution challenges, has become the main concerns for a large number of foreign investors and foreign-funded enterprises.

This seminar will be jointly given by four speakers from Global Law Office namely Henry Hou, Shifang Guo, Ken Wang and Dahai Wei, which will start from the legal issues concerning the compliance operation and dispute resolution of foreign-funded enterprises to the practical experience and representative cases in areas such as contract management, corporate governance, intellectual property, trade secrets protection, legal compliance and dispute resolution. Your participation is welcomed!

随着经济全球化趋势，我国对于外商投资政策及外商准入产业的清单几经更迭，同时2020年1月1日施行的《中华人民共和国外商投资法》（以下简称"外商投资法"）取代了原有的"三资企业法"，形成了外商投资企业统一的法律基础，标志着内外资企业在我国的公司治理层面上正式并轨。然而在实务中，由于相关规定更迭后存在差异，且大量外商投资企业正处于外商投资法实施后的五年过渡期内，外资企业的合规运营及管理面临新的挑战。如何在这样的背景下帮助中国境内的外商投资企业在设立运营过程中实现包括业务发展和公司治理等方面的合规管理，有效规避法律风险并应对相关争议解决挑战成为大量外国投资者及外商投资企业关心的热点问题。

本次讲座环球律师事务所侯陆军、郭仕芳、王克友、魏大海四位主讲人将从外商投资企业合规运营与争议解决相关的法律问题出发，分享中国境内外资企业在合同管理、公司治理、知识产权、商业秘密保护、合规监管及争议解决等领域的实务操作经验与代表性案例。
