Do you find yourself with both an ethical and business dilemma when forced to negotiate with your customers’ buyers, supply chain managers, procurement analysts, or other non-lawyers? Are you frustrated because people in such roles have limited authority to make changes but refuse to put you in touch with their law department? Do you have a product that is unique, yet the customer — who is always right! — rejects your carefully tailored terms and insists on using its own standard template that requires a major overhaul for your particular product or services? You are not alone! This session will be facilitated by both big- and small-company lawyers who share their tips and best practices for situations like these. Learn how to navigate your customers’ supply chain roadblocks ethically and effectively while using your sales and business team to facilitate the effort.

In 2015, the European Union (EU) is strengthening its data privacy rules, threatening to fine violators as much as €5M (US$6.8 million) or 5 percent of a company’s annual revenue. While full enforcement is still a year away, now is the time for organizations to start preparing. Speakers will review key elements of what you need to know in the legislation, how they apply to non-European-based companies, what differs from existing privacy requirements and what you must do to prepare. Topics include data residency, data security classification, privacy mapping strategies, assessing key risks, data remediation strategies, often-overlooked repositories that hold privacy information, tactics for implementing the “right to be forgotten” requirement and how to keep your privacy data identified, secure and controlled on an ongoing basis. Start preparing now for these far-reaching new rules.
