Overview
Event Details
Please join Steptoe & Johnson HK LLP on Thursday and Friday, June 1 and 2 for our Global Trade and Enforcement Symposium in Hong Kong.
China is the United States’ largest trading partner. In 2022, the total value of the US trade in goods with China amounted to around US$690.6bn, of which US$153.8bn was exports from the U.S. and US$536.8bn was imports from China. A similar story exists for the EU - China was the largest partner for EU imports of goods in 2022 and the third largest partner for EU exports of goods. China is the 4th largest trading partner for the UK.
This full program brings together presenters from across the entire Steptoe network and covers topics ranging from what’s happening in the US Congress and executive agencies, handling the challenges of cross-border investigations, developments in US export controls and sanctions, to the handling and enforcement of intellectual property rights.
Through the course of these panel discussions, we'll place a particular focus on what is happening on the regulatory and enforcement front in the US, UK and EU and the potential impact for Asia-Pacific based business.
