IPR Protection Strategies for Design

      

 

The workshop IPR Protection Strategies for Design, supported by the European Chamber of Commerce and the German Chamber of Commerce in partnership with the German Centre for Industry and Trade Beijing, is open to European SMEs and intermediary organisations.

 


Event Description


In China gaining legal protection for product and packaging designs is very different from Europe leading to many questions for European businesses operating in China:
-How can I protect my design from being copied?
-What is the difference in protection offered by design patent and copyright?
-Can I protect a design if it has already been sold in another market?
-What about software design?


This training will provide the answers to such typical questions and provide a framework to develop a strategy for effectively protecting existing and future designs. The training will also feature an interactive exercise which will provide practical experience of developing a design protection strategy.
This training is suitable for companies in the creative sector but equally for any company investing in product or packaging design.
