Yanhui (Amy) Gong is a seasoned legal professional with over 20 years of hands-on experience. She began her career at Mori Hamada & Matsumoto, one of Japan's leading law firms, where she spent a decade advising on inbound foreign direct investment and M&A transactions. She subsequently spent ten years in-house at two global retail brands —UNIQLO and lululemon—where she developed a rare dual perspective: the commercial acumen of a business partner combined with the rigor of external counsel. During her tenure at lululemon China, Amy built the company's legal function from the ground up and led cross-functional initiatives that delivered end-to-end legal support across every business line. Notably, the cross-border data compliance program she spearheaded was recognized with the China Business Law Journal's "In-House Legal Team Contribution Award" in 2024. She is also a certified Personal Information Protection Compliance Auditor. In her current role as a legal expert at AnJie Broad Law Firm, Amy advises clients on inbound investment and M&A, outbound investment ("Going Global"), privacy and data compliance, and general compliance and legal support for the retail and consumer goods sector. She is committed to delivering pragmatic legal solutions that balance commercial viability with effective risk management, helping clients achieve stable, sustainable growth in increasingly complex regulatory environments both in China and abroad.
