Recently, the Lingang New Area Data Cross-Border Service Center (the “Service Center”) conducted a business exchange with Kingland Partners. During the meeting, the Service Center provided a comprehensive overview of the data outbound regulatory framework in the Lingang New Area, its core service advantages, and representative practical cases, clearly illustrating the pilot achievements and one-stop service capabilities of the Lingang New Area in facilitating cross-border data flows.

Representing Kingland Partners, the team led by Attorney Lu Jing shared practical insights into the key challenges faced by biopharmaceutical enterprises in cross-border data transfers. The team engaged in in-depth discussions with the Service Center on issues including the negative list for data export, the scope of applicability of operational guidelines, and the implementation of routine regulatory oversight.

Subsequently, both parties held detailed discussions on topics such as jointly building an ecosystem for cross-border data services, promoting policies in key sectors, and enhancing coordination in professional services. They also reached a preliminary consensus to leverage their respective resources and professional strengths to better align compliance services with industry needs, thereby supporting biopharmaceutical enterprises in achieving secure, efficient, and compliant cross-border data flows.

The team maintains keen insight into industry trends and has developed systematic practical experience in data protection, anti-corruption compliance, government and internal investigations, as well as complex business development (BD) transactions, enabling them to provide clients with tailored, one-stop solutions aligned with industry practices.
