Bridge Over Troubled Waters: New
Challenges Facing Overseas Companies Doing Business in the
U.S. Under the New Trump Administration
President Donald Trump has arrived at the White House. This
program will address emerging policies coming out of the
Trump Administration which may affect Taiwanese businesses.
This presentation will touch on practical immigration and
customs issues, including what you can expect as a business
visitor and how to plan for it in advance. For Taiwanese
companies importing goods into the U.S., we will cover the
expansion of the authority of the International Trade
Commission (ITC) and the latest cases addressing copyright
and patent exhaustion principles. Included in the
presentation will be a discussion of how to deal with trade
secrets and other claims arising out the hiring of
competitors' employees, and an update on the seizure

From Alice to TC Heartland: How is the Supreme Court
Changing the Landscape of Patent Litigation?
The U.S. Supreme Court has taken up an increasing number of
patent cases in recent years, and a number of the resulting
decisions have had a profound impact on patent litigation in
the United States. This presentation will examine a number
of those cases, including Mayo and Alice, which dramatically
changed the patent-eligibility analysis, Octane Fitness,
which lowered the bar for recovering attorneys' fees, and
most recently, TC Heartland, which limits where patent cases
may be filed. The presentation will also discuss the impact
of those cases on patent litigation and how to best position
your company in current and future U.S. patent litigation. |

Watch Out: Privacy and Cybersecurity in the Context of
Technology Litigation
Technology companies conducting business in the United
States are facing increased data privacy and cybersecurity
litigation. Consumers are demanding increased policing of
cybersecurity by the U.S. FTC and other regulators to
protect against potential data breaches. Such litigation
cases involve a variety of consumer products, including
electronic toys, wearable health devices, and vehicles. This
presentation will review current changes in U.S. laws and
regulations related to privacy and cybersecurity and discuss
recent cases addressing such issues. The presentation will
also discuss how to best protect your company from the risk
of such data privacy and cybersecurity litigation, whether
through product design or by implementing specific programs. |
