This Monday's 9am (GMT+2) #SandtonDiscussion arranged by Lita is being lead by Reinhardt Biermann who will cover the recent case of JRMM Technologies v Ball involving:
- misuse of trade secrets, passing off and confidential information
- decisions between action and application court procedures
- the importance of choosing business partners correctly
- how not to spend your start up funds
all in the context of a new business for importing and distributing rock crushing equipment for use in mines. And if you think there is nothing secret about a rock crusher check this out (link no longer available).
