Are you an in-house counsel, a contract manager, a transactional or arbitration lawyer? When you received a call from your management team or your client at 6:30 pm asking you to conclude an arbitration clause within a few hours before the deal is sealed, how do you secure the best possible arbitration clause for your company or client, while bearing your business objectives in mind and making sure that the corporate policy is followed? What are the key points to consider while drafting the clause? What issues can you concede in return for more favourable terms in other parts of the arbitration clause? The recent legislative developments on arbitration, such as the interim measures between mainland China and Hong Kong, and the allowing of third-party funding, further complicate these issues.

For that reason, China has signed co-funding deals and rolled out policies to encourage the start-up scene in their market, especially focusing on financing new ideas and innovations in China. The most prominent funding and programs include are the ‘EU-China Co-Funding Mechanism’, the ‘National Natural Science Fund’, the ‘Bases and Talents Program’, ‘The Medium to Long-Term Plan for the Development of Science and Technology (2006-2020)’, etc. To be able to succeed in this huge but complicated market, a good understanding of the innovation landscape and its funding opportunities in China is essential.
