The Flanders-China Chamber of Commerce and the Province of East-Flanders have the pleasure to invite you to the China Roundtable Meeting focusing on ‘Intellectual Property and Technology Transfer in China in 2014’? This event will take place at 15h30 on Wednesday 24 September 2014 at the House of the Province of East Flanders, Seminariestraat 2, 9000 Gent.

Mr Philippe Snel, Lawyer and Chief Representative at the Dewolf & Partners Shanghai Office  , will illustrate how recent innovations in PRC trademark law and the copyright law once more confirm that China has definitively turned the corner on the practice of cheap copies and inescapable trademark infringements.

Understand how your Intellectual Property assets can become the essential
cornerstone of your business development in China. Learn from others how your company (even if it’s small) could be able to take advantage of the ongoing technology drive in China without risking it all.
