Investment Treaty Protection for Tech Companies

Tech companies are increasingly subject to regulations of foreign countries. When the regulations rise to the level of interference with a foreign investment, these companies may have a more powerful recourse than their domestic courts to seek redress: bilateral investment treaties and international arbitration.

In this video, partner Elliot Friedman and special counsel Thomas Walsh explain the nature and scope of investment treaties, how other industries have availed themselves of their protections, and what companies should consider as part of their “treaty planning” strategy.
