Intellectual Property  

 

Accurate market research, detailed contracting, performance monitoring and reporting, and effective collection procedures are essential elements of a well-constructed licensing program. As with other aspects of doing business in China, selecting appropriate licenses and marketing relationships is the key to protecting and optiminizing intellectual property rights and know-how in China.

We have expertise and experience in all aspects of the acquisition, protection, enforcement, and exploitation of IP rights, as well as in franchising and licensing agreements. Our approach is to apply and extend IP law and practice to the changing business environment, thus providing clients with the most effective and practical solutions.
