China Customs Protection of IPR Webinar
December 10, 2008.
Protecting and enforcing the intellectual property rights of U.S. businesses in
China is critical to the success of U.S. industry. Staying informed on the latest
developments in China is integral to this effort. The International Trade Administration
at the Department of Commerce developed a China IPR Webinar Series to provide U.S.
small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) with regular opportunities to learn about
legal changes, share best practices and keep up-to-date on other IPR-related issues
in China. This program brings together the expertise of volunteer attorneys and
policy makers to provide crucial (and otherwise expensive) advice to U.S. companies,
and in particular SMEs, at no charge.
As one of the contributors, Johnny delivered a presentation on "How to Seek Protection
from China Customs for Your IPs" at the webinar.
