Join this webinar to learn about the recent and possible future developments with cross-border trade and privacy in Asia, such as the Comprehensive Progressive Trans-Pacific Partnership ("CPTPP") and Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership ("RCEP") free trade agreements, both of which have e-commerce provisions addressing cross-border data. It will also talk about what companies should do if they want to participate in and benefit from this framework.
