The new PRC Company Law, effective from 1 July 2024, has brought multiple changes ­­– inter alia related to corporate governance and enhanced responsibilities and liabilities of company organs. A key change is that for many limited liability companies, including foreign-invested companies, employee representative(s) in the Supervisory Board or in the Board of Directors are required. What are the key changes in these areas? How to set up the corporate organs? How to elect employee representative(s)? What do companies need to pay attention to?

During this event, corporate law and labor law experts will provide an overview on the key issues and share their insights.
