Strategies for IP protection in China
The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s China Intellectual Property (IP) Road Show comes to Kansas City, Missouri, with a one-day program that brings together policymakers and thought leaders on China IP from the U.S. government and IP practitioners—including local businesspeople and IP experts—to share insights that will benefit U.S. IP rights holders. This program is one of a series that the USPTO is conducting across the country.
Topics to be covered include:
- Overview of IP issues in China
