The DLA Piper team is pleased to bring you an update from our corporate and regulatory practice experts in the EU (Brussels and Berlin) and the UK, in the area of FDI screening and investment into EU and UK.
 
Our panellists will discuss the political dynamics involved, as well as the anticipated approach of the UK and the EU in terms of their respective relationships with China. What will these new rules mean for Chinese companies looking to invest? What type of political and economic effects will they have and do they spur or deter transatlantic co-operation? Who stands to win from this new regulatory environment and will it change the way in which we do business? The DLA Piper panel of speakers will lead an open, frank and practical discussion on these timely topics.
