China has a rapidly maturing intellectual property (IP) environment, especially in the area of commercializing IP through licensing. Register now to attend this free 90-minute webinar, where you will hear from China IP experts from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) and private practitioners.

The discussion will include:

• Structure of an IP licensing deal
• Enforceability of IP contracts
• Compliance with China’s laws, rules, and regulations
• Working with state-owned enterprises
• Handling of trade secrets and other proprietary information
• Dispute remedy options
• Ownership of improvements and technical advancements
• Monetary considerations, including taxes and methods for transmitting foreign-currency remittances out of China

There will be a question-and-answer session following the presentation.

This is the first of a two-part series of webinars on this topic and will focus on licensing technical IP. Part 2 will focus on non-technical copyright and trademark licensing.
