Police in Aichi Prefecture, Japan, have arrested a former Asahi Kasei employee for stealing confidential information and passing it to a Chinese company. The information was related to an Asahi latent curing agent, used to harden epoxy resins, and was given to Shandong Shengquan New Materials, Asahi says. The company promises to start civil proceedings against the former employee and Shandong Shengquan, demanding that the firm destroy and restrain from using the confidential information. Asahi also plans to implement greater controls over its trade secrets.
Well, at least it's not American companies losing their trade secrets.
