For many businesses, confidential information is a primary asset, so protecting it is fundamental to success. Businesses need processes for identifying valuable confidential information, and robust confidentiality agreements for protecting any disclosures.

Hear from AJ Park Principal, Grace Thomas-Edmond as she explains what protection such agreements provide for confidential information when you might need one, and some tricky issues such as governing law and disputes in China.  

What's covered?

  • What is confidential information and how do I protect it? 
  • Three categories of information:
    • Information you will disclose without an NDA
    • Information you will disclose under an NDA
    • Information you will not disclose to anyone, even under an NDA. 
  • What confidential information does my NDA cover?
  • What is prohibited under the NDA? 
  • How long do the NDA obligations last? 
  • Is my NDA binding?
  • Governing law and dispute resolution
