▌ Singapore’s favorable corporate law, low taxation, high quality of infrastructure and established free flow of capital have made it a great destination for investments and business ventures.

▌ Internal investigations are often required by law. For example, Korea has laws that require employers to investigate allegations of sexual harassment and non-sexual workplace harassment. In addition, many organizations have their own policies that require internal investigations into certain types of misconduct. In this session, our expert presenters will discuss what internal investigations are, why they are important, especially in a cross-border context, as well as best practices for conducting internal investigations.
▌ The panel will casually discuss and dissect some of the key factors and myths that may impact our decision to transition from inhouse to law firm and vice versa.

▌ The World Bank Group and its affiliated multilateral development banks finance development projects all over the world.

▌ COVID-19 pandemic and a new Cold War raise barriers between countries. This paradigm shift have alienated China’s legal system from our interests.

This session explores trend and implication of China’s A.I. and data regulation sooner or later we will have to face.
