Part 2 – A General Counsel's Map for International Business Expansion

AGG Talks: Cross-Border Business

In this two-part episode, Mike Burke, AGG Corporate partner and co-leader of the firm’s International Initiative, is joined by Allison Raley, AGG Emerging Technologies and Women in Tech Law co-chair, to discuss what general counsels should consider when their companies are seeking international expansion.
Allison, a former GC of a tech company, brings first-hand experience to the conversation, which touches on the importance of maintaining strong relationships with regulators, prioritizing key jurisdictions for expansion, setting up local in-house counsel for success, and compliance with differing annual reporting requirements.
Allison also provides her thoughts on key steps emerging companies can take to increase their chances of success in a foreign market.
