A resource list with a sampling of supplemental materials pertaining to the topics raised during this CLO ThinkTank on Global law Department Management

Confused business proposals, deal fever, empire-building dreams, and old-fashioned complexity render joint ventures and strategic alliance among the most frustrating, prolonged and expensive deals. Corporate practitioners must often organize the method out of the madness these transactions can present.

International M&A is not a new subject. However, increasing compliance hurdles and the use of information technology to manage data present greater opportunities for success OR failure in a transaction. Do you know the US and non-US laws well enough to clear these hurdles? As regulators become more assertive in protecting personal information, what specific steps should a selling company take? Can an electronic deal room be accessible from outside Europe? How can a prospective buyer acquire adequate information about key non-US employees?

In these days of increasingly complex technologies and a need for technology to interface effectively, industry standards are becoming increasingly important. Couple this with the increasing importance of standards, companies are finding that intellectual property has a large role in setting these standards.

It is estimated that well over 90% of all data is electronically stored information (ESI), mostly consisting of what we save on our laptops, desktops, and servers. Alarmingly, one of the largest concerns facing organizations today is how to manage and limit ESI for necessary discovery and pending litigation. Studies indicate that discovery and document review incur between 58-90% of litigation costs.
