Trade Secrets and Noncompetition: How to navigate competitive developments, implementations, and safeguards for your business
Join us for a presentation regarding recent developments in trade secrets and noncompetition litigation in California. We will explore California law concerning noncompetition agreements and the so-called trade secrets exception to California’s ban on noncompetes.
We will also summarize key provisions of and recent case law concerning the Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (DTSA) and the California Uniform Trade Secrets Act (CUTSA), and discuss what factors should be considered in deciding whether to file suit for misappropriation of trade secrets in federal or state court.
