Han Kun has recently added two senior members to its TMT practice. New partner Stanley Guo and counsel Anita Sun are based in the firm's Shenzhen and Shanghai offices respectively.

Guo joins Han Kun from Huawei Technologies, where he worked for over 14 years, and served as the global director of corporate legal affairs department. At Han Kun, his practice will focus on IP, M&A, dispute resolution, and regulatory compliance for MNCs.

Sun, on the other hand, practised for nine years in international law firms including Coudert Brothers and Paul Hastings. She will focus on M&A, PE, FDI and corporate restructuring.

Both Guo and Sun have significant experience within the TMT sector which works well with Han Kun's focus in the industry. The firm has been engaged on many technology-related transactions recently including the Hurray! and ku6 merger in 2009.

Just before making the lateral hires, Han Kun also promoted two counsels, Lin Yixin and Jason Wang, to partner in its Beijing and Shenzhen offices respectively. ALB
