The Ministry of Economic Development presented the interim results of the development of the convention on negotiable cargo documents. The presentation took place at an international conference organized by the Department of Civil Law of the Moscow State Law University. The representative of the Ministry, Valery Vavilin, noted the advantages of a negotiable cargo document: the expansion of cargo transportation for countries with a developed land transport system and the adjustment of supply routes. The implementation of the convention will reduce freight carriers' costs and create complex transit chains.

The information is valuable because it adds a benefit to the product or service.   Trade secrets can be the ingredients in a recipe, a manufacturing process, or any other information that provides an advantage or key element to a business. The TUTSA states that Texas trade secrets include any business, scientific, technical, economic, or engineering information, as well as any design, prototype, plan, program device, code, or procedure related to a business.  https://lnkd.in/dvkhGpaF Here is a good overview by J.
