Business organisations are facing unprecedented challenges given the incoming wave of economic recession. Corporate law is critical in allowing businesses to respond quickly to these challenges. This session will explore important issues in corporate law that can help alleviate the difficulties caused by the pandemic. These issues include the use of electronic and virtual meetings for the board and general meetings; the appropriateness of corporate actions in fighting the pandemic from a corporate social responsibility perspective; and adjustments to multinational corporations to reflect new medical law standards under the pandemic.
Associate Professor Charlie Xiao-chuan Weng will host a panel of eminent corporate scholars from the Asian Pacific region to discuss the issues mentioned above and their implications to the whole region. He will be joined by Associate Professor I-Tzu Su of National Chung Hsing University, Associate Professor Christopher Chen Chao-hung of Singapore Management University, and Dr Xu Qian of Hong Kong University.
