As shoppers around the globe hit the New Year sales, this issue of Law à la Mode is brought to you by our Hong Kong editorial team.
Highlights in this issue include reflections on the growth of shopping malls in China in spite of the global trend away from traditional bricks and mortar shopping, and an insight into a trade mark portfolio pitfall which many Western brands fall foul of when entering the Chinese market. We examine some of the challenges faced by retailers embracing m-commerce and contactless technology, and consider the impact on global retailers of recent supply chain legislation in California. We also look back at some of our Fashion, Retail and Design group's highlights of 2012.
If you have any comments please get in touch with the Fashion, Retail and Design group via our email: fashion@dlapiper.com.
We hope that you enjoy this issue!
