"The new China Cyber Security Law, which took effect on June 1, 2017, poses many questions and insecurities for all companies operating in China, especially for those that handle employee and customer data cross-border.
As it is customary, the law appears to be passed and in effect before the underlying implications, enforcement mechanisms and potential penalties are clear. In comparison, the EU has also passed such new law, but it will only go into effect by mid 2018.
How do local and global industry leaders view this new law? What are the expected implications in the Automotive sector? A regulation that deals with data in the whole will have an effect on all aspects of trade, be it employee data, e.g. for Chinese citizens working on international assignments, consumer data across the nation and any other data collected. The August Automotive Roundtable will serve as platform to discus all these questions.
