First Call Country Series: Canadian Edition

Join ACC St. Louis and Gowling WLG for a closer look at key legal issues that a company may face when expanding outside of the United States.

Expanding a business across borders can be an effective and significant way to increase your company’s customer base, enhance your talent pool and explore new markets.  However, the process may seem daunting as you try to navigate a whole new system of laws and regulations.       Gowling WLG is pleased to present its First Call Country Series in which we will explore key legal issues that a company may face when expanding outside the United States.  In this series we will look at expansion into a number of countries, including Canada, United Kingdom, France, the Middle East and others.

In this Canadian edition, our panel will discuss ways to enter the Canadian market, the flow of money across borders, and issues relating to both the hiring of Canadian employees and the movement of company employees across the border.  We will also explore how to protect your company’s IP in Canada and some unique “Canadian” issues for companies looking to do business in Quebec.

We look forward to seeing you online on Thursday, October 20th.
