Intellectual Property Management 2009
June 29-30, 2009
Singapore
In this new era of
technology and knowledge driven economy,
IP plays not only a big role in the
drastic ‘over night’ economic boom but
as also as a key-consideration of
everyday business decision making.
Emerging as a key driver for building
and sustaining, IP is forcing business
organizations to actively manage IP. As
human innovation and creativity is an
on-going process not only in our daily
lives but also in the business aspect;
new products, brands, and creative
designs appear almost daily in the
market. The increase of the capacity
however does not match with the
awareness level amongst the business
group. Though IP could be used as a
productive business tool yet it is still
taken for granted and not always fully
exploited due to the challenges faced
during the creation, ownership,
protection and enforcement processes.
If continuously left unprotected, a good
invention or creation may be lost to
competitors who could be in a better
position to commercialize a product or
service at a lower price leaving the
originator in loss of their creation
without any reward or financial benefit.
This conference will enable forward
looking enterprises to face challenges
of extracting the latent value of their
IP and using it effectively in their
business strategy.

22nd
National Conference on Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act
Tuesday, November 17, 2009 to
Wednesday, November 18, 2009
Gaylord National Resort & Convention
Centre, Washington, DC, United States
The increase of FCPA enforcement makes
prevention an even higher priority than
it may have been in the past. The
absence of preventative measure is
almost certain to result in
substantially increased penalties if an
issue arises. This makes an effective
anti-corruption compliance program
essential for all companies. With
record-setting sanctions involving
well-known companies, global
organizations have to reassess their own
anti-corruption measures to prevent
lapses that might lead to damaging and
costly enforcement actions.
Now in its 22nd successful year, the
American Conference Institute's National
Conference on the Foreign Corrupt
Practices Act is the event that
corporate counsel, compliance officers,
outside counsel and consultants rely on
for comprehensive, insightful, and
practical guidance on critical FCPA
compliance issues. Benefit from the
practical perspective of seasoned
corporate FCPA compliance executives,
get an update on enforcement and policy
initiatives from top Government
officials and FCPA attorneys, and learn
how industry is setting up internal
controls to comply in this constantly
changing global legal landscape.
