摘要

因個案公司遭受美國企業運用商業訴訟之手段，阻止個案公司之產品銷售至美國，因此個案公司亟欲尋求訴訟策略方向，期待分析美國與個案類似的商業訴訟案例，彙整出應注意之關鍵，提供個案公司在此訴訟案件中參考的方向。
透過個案研究方法，本研究發現營業秘密本身是一種資訊，其可以是技術性之資訊，也可以是非技術性之商業資訊，只要其可用於生產、銷售或經營上，並符合法律規範之要件，均可成為相關法律保護之客體。
本研究建議個案公司採用以下對策:(1)積極取得不侵權鑑定；(2)積極蒐證並提出答辯；(3)進行和解或合作談判。以期能夠幫助個案公司在目前之商業訴訟中能夠獲得較佳的情勢。並綜合探討管理面與法律面問題之配合，提出建議策略供國內企業及早建立制度，避免遭受國際商業訴訟之苦。
