Event Description The China IPR SME Helpdesk is pleased to invite you to an informative workshop on Intellectual Property Protection in China. This workshop will be conducted in Chinese.   Although the general awareness about the importance of Intellectual Property protection is increasing, it may be difficult to determine which of your company`s assets can be considered as Intellectual Property. If you have a brand name or logo, a database of contacts, technology, graphics, a website or a catalogue promoting your products, this workshop will help you to determine the value of these assets. The workshop will give you a thorough understanding on how you can protect your company`s Intellectual Property and will address recent changes in the Chinese Intellectual Property law. By attending the workshop you will: • Discover China`s Intellectual Property landscape and learn how to protect your company`s IP • Find out which of your company`s assets can be considered as IP • Get updated on recent developments in the Chinese IP law • Receive practical and business-focused advice from a China IPR expert   Speaker Biographies   Tony Chen, Partner, Jones Day Tony Chen represents technology and life science companies in their intellecutal property matters.
