Similar to the exportation of tangible goods, disclosing a technical data and research know-how is also strictly controlled by several government agencies. Staying on top of ever-changing and complex regulations becomes increasingly harder. Educational institutions generally face more challenges as the deemed export regulations require further screening and license determination for attendees of programs, projects, and courses.
In an environment where technical information is potentially exchanged with foreign nationals, it is significant to have a robust compliance program.
