Moreover, client and vendor relationships that employers entrust to their employees and executives are a vital network to long-term business sustainability. Yet, employers across Asia regularly struggle with critical practices necessary to protect themselves from unfair competition by their own current and former employees.

Our panelists are both locally qualified and regional legal practitioners who will discuss the good, better and best practices of employers in Asia regarding noncompetition, nonsolicitation, and nondisclosure covenants and practices.
