Corporate Affairs
Our corporate affairs project area provides the international business community with unique access to the issues and individuals that define U.S.-Korea business relations in a rapidly changing global environment. The programs offered in this project area include conferences, seminars and forums that help Americans and Koreans meet the challenges of doing business together. These programs bring together Korean and American leaders from government, business, the media, academia and international organizations for frank and interactive discussions of the current economic, political and security topics that affect U.S.-Korea relations in a global context.
The focus of this project area is to explore and clarify the major issues affecting the economic partnership between the U.S. and Korea by providing opportunities for interaction between major players in both the private and public sectors of both countries. The objective is to promote a better understanding of the potential for mutually beneficial collaboration within a rapidly changing global environment.

Joseph V. DeMarco
Partner

The Korea Society
950 Third Avenue @ 57th Street, 8th Floor
(Building entrance on SW corner of Third Avenue and 57th Street)
At
the leading edge of the digital revolution, both the U.S. and South
Korea have been radically transformed by widespread Internet use. Not
only has this revolution changed the way people live and do business,
it has also expanded the spectrum of illegal activity. Cybercrime has
many faces: from computer hacking and online piracy of copyrighted
content, to spam, spyware and malware, or any of a host of other issues
unimaginable a few decades ago. How is the law faring against this ever
elusive opponent?
 Joseph DeMarco will share his
perspective on the Internet revolution, evolving trends in cybercrime,
and how developments on both sides of the law have forever affected the
way businesses, individuals and criminals interact in the global
economy. DeMarco will explain how American and Korean experiences of
these problems are similar, in what ways they differ, and how each
country can learn from the other in addressing the challenges presented
by the darker side of the digital revolution.

South Korean Support to the U.S. Asset-Backed Market
 with
Daniel Yun
CEO, Belstar
Tuesday, May 26, 2009
11:30 AM-12:00 AM ♦ Registration
12:00 PM-1:30 PM ♦ Lunch and Presentation
The Korea Society
950 Third Avenue @ 57th Street, 8th Floor
(Building entrance on SW corner of Third Avenue and 57th Street)
In the wake of the failure of Lehman Brothers, the Federal Reserve launched the Term Asset-Backed Securities Loan Facility (TALF). This emergency program was designed to revive the market for securities backed by consumer loans through issuance of asset-backed securities (ABS) collateralized by student, auto, credit card, and Small Business Administration (SBA) guaranteed loans.
Daniel Yun will examine the program, its operation and achievements, and discuss how the U.S. Federal Reserve is working with the private sector—including some major Korean companies—to inject liquidity into the U.S. financial system.

Labor and Employment Law Challenges facing Korean Employers Doing Business in the U.S.
 with
William J. Milani, Jay P. Krupin, Robert S. Groban, Jr. & Michael A. Levine
Epstein Becker & Green, P.C.
Wednesday, April 29, 2009
The new Administration in the White House, along with the increase in a Democratic majority in the Senate, opens up the possibility for a dramatic transformation in U.S. labor and employment law. Not since 1993 has the opportunity for modifications, amendments and promulgations of new laws been so ripe to alter the labor and employment landscape. But this oncoming shift in employer rights and obligations could occur at a difficult time as companies across regions and industries struggle to meet the unprecedented challenges of the current economic crisis.
Attorneys William Milani, Jay Krupin, Robert Groban, Jr., and Michael Levine, of Epstein Becker & Green, will explain what to expect and how to proactively adjust to changes in the areas of unionization, reduction in workforce, discrimination claims, wage hours and payment issues, and immigration.
