2015年底，国务院审改办决定将人社部负责的“外国人来华就业许可”和国家外国专家局实施的“外国专家来华工作许可”整合为“外国人来华工作许可”。新版许可自2017年4月1日起全国统一实施。“两证整合”不仅是简单合并，而是统一外国人来华工作管理服务，对于这一新政的亮点，我们作出如下简要解读，以供参考。
统一证件名称
本次新版许可在旧版的基础上，对许可证书进行了整合。原《外国专家来华工作许可证》、《外国人就业许可证》统一整合为《外国人工作许可通知》，采用电子化在线打印；原《外国专家证》和《外国人就业证》统一整合为《外国人工作许可证》。《外国人工作许可证》作为外国人在中国工作的合法证件，一人一号、终生不变。 Continue Reading 外国人就业新政：1+1>2？
欢迎阅读第七期《跨境》，我们定期报道全球国际仲裁动态。
Welcome to the seventh edition of Crossing Borders, a periodic review of developments in international arbitration across the world.
本期《跨境》聚焦中国提出的“一带一路”倡议及其对国际仲裁的影响。我们将探讨投资者在“一带一路”沿线国家和地区的投资中面临的主要风险和缓解策略，通过审慎设计投资结构、起草争议解决条款和利用商业和投资条约仲裁保护进行有针对性的投资保护的重要性。我们还将讨论与实施“一带一路”倡议相关的一个重要方面，即在中国承认和执行外国仲裁裁决。
In this edition, we focus on China’s Belt and Road initiative and its impact on international arbitration. We explore some of the key risks and mitigation strategies investors can use when making their investments along the Belt and Road, the importance of tailoring investment protections through careful structuring of investments, drafting of dispute resolution clauses and use of commercial and investment treaty arbitration protections. We also look at an area of significant practical importance to the initiative: the recognition and enforcement of foreign arbitral awards in China.

把握“车联网”法律监管的主线——“两端”+“一点”“车联网”，又称“智能网联汽车”，顾名思义，就是实现汽车功能及使用的“网络化”和“智能化”。车联网自21世纪第二个十年起，在中国方兴未艾，其应用场景和业务类型呈现出迅速多样化、扩展化的发展趋势。我们在此引用清华大学汽车产业与技术战略研究院赵福全教授等对车联网所做的服务分类[1]： Continue Reading 无“数据”，怎“车联”？——“车联网”数据类核心业务法律监管刍议

Earlier this year, after several frustrated efforts, Australia finally passed new mandatory data breach notification laws in the form of the Privacy Amendment (Notifiable Data Breaches) Act 2017 (Cth) (which will come into effect on or before 22 February 2018).
While much has already been written about the Act, there is still a degree of uncertainty as to how the new regime may play out in practice. In this article, we aim to guide readers through the practical application of the laws by reference to a number of hypothetical fact scenarios and, in the course of doing so, provide some practical compliance tips.

The move towards self-driving cars is relentless and China as the world’s largest auto market and a leader in internet technologies wants to be at the cutting edge of this revolution.
That self-driving cars is a huge potential market seems clear. On March 3, 2017, IHS Markit, the leading automobile market intelligence firm, published its latest Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) Applications and Sensors Report[1]. This report noted that the global ADAS market is set to explode and surpass 302 million units annually in 2022 – which would be a nearly 200% increase over the 2016 numbers. This growth is mostly driven by advances in sensors technology that can be combined to provide better automated driving and includes aftermarket ADAS solutions for existing vehicles.
