Avoiding Pitfalls when Trading in Europe: Important Differences between European and Hong Kong Laws
The importance of the EU market to Hong Kong cannot be understated. According to a report entitled “European Union, Trade in goods with Hong Kong”, the top 3 exporting trading partners are China (53.9%), EU 28 (9.3%) and USA (9.3%). The value of Hong Kong exports to the EU is €32,327 million in 2014.
It is therefore important for lawyers who are advising businesses in Hong Kong to ensure that they are aware of:
• how EU law can affect the achievement of commercial objectives; and
• the differences between Hong Kong laws and EU law in a number of commercial areas.
With this knowledge they can help meet the commercial needs of businesses in Hong Kong.
This seminar is addressed both to local lawyers, who wish to understand the legal particularities of European law, as well as to overseas lawyers from Europe and elsewhere, who deal with Chinese clients, so they become aware of the differences between European and their local law. To that end, each of the topics will be presented by a European lawyer and followed by a local commentator.
This seminar also aims to become an extraordinary opportunity for Hong Kong and overseas lawyers to meet and create bonds for future business opportunities.
Attend this ground-breaking UIA seminar and help businesses in Hong Kong, with which you are involved, achieve more in the EU.
