In today's technology-rich environment, companies increasingly get involved in technology licensing and recognize the value of data as a business asset that should be protected and can be exploited through licensing to other parties for more synergy.

Companies therefore can encounter a range of agreements that implicate the protection and treatment of technology, data and related intellectual property (IP) rights. Where one party is seeking to exploit a software, a data feed or has developed a database it wishes to license, data and IP issues may be the specific focus of a transaction. However, those issues also arise as an ancillary consideration in other licenses and commercial transactions, e.g. technology services arrangements or as capital contribution for joint ventures.

On 1st November 2019, China's Ministry of Justice (MOJ) released a draft version of Regulation on the Implementation of Foreign Investment Law. The Draft provides much-needed clarity on certain challenging issues in the Foreign Investment Law (FIL), such as how to reconcile the corporate structure of foreign investment enterprises during the transition period, while leaving certain areas for further clarification. In addition, further ramp up efforts to protection on IP rights, the Draft provides that China establishes the punitive compensation system for intellectual property infringement.

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.

Chinese government authorities have recently issued a series of policies and draft amendments to push forward the establishment of the Social Credit System (SCS). Foreign enterprises are particularly concerned at how the SCS could affect the business operation of their Chinese subsidiaries.

As the Social Credit System will be largely in place by the end of 2020, SCS is no longer just a vision. With the window of opportunity rapidly closing for companies to prepare for these regulatory ratings, companies need to stay alert for the upcoming the SCS and expect that heavy non-compliance will immediately lead to a listing as a distrusted entity, followed by costly sanctions.
