Plexon, a U.S. neuroscience technology firm, settled with the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) over illegal exports of neural recording data acquisition systems to a Chinese military-linked entity on the Entity List without a license. The settlement includes an audit of export compliance practices, training requirements, and a conditional waiver of a $1.7 million fine.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Neuroscience Tech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Your export compliance program just became a front-line barrier to market access in China. Neuroscience tech founders must tighten controls now or risk losing export rights and facing costly audits.
