Free China IP Seminar: Kansas City, September 19-20, 2007
The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) is putting on another in its series of free seminars on China intellectual property. The seminar is entitled, "Conference on Protecting Your Intellectual Property in China and the Global Marketplace" and it will take place on September 19 and 20, from 8:00am until 5:30pm, at the Hyatt Regency Crown Center, 2345 McGee Street, in Kansas City, Missouri.
The USPTO website describes the seminar as follows:
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Companies of any size, from those contemplating entering the China market to those with an established presence in China, and including those who simply want to know more about better protecting themselves against IP theft from abroad.TOPICS: China’s laws and regulations that may affect how a business protects and enforces its intellectual property, how best to protect business assets to avoid intellectual property problems in the first place, how to recognize when an intellectual property asset has been infringed, what to do if infringement occurs, and what the U.S. government is doing to improve the intellectual property protection and enforcement environment
in China.
The agenda and speakers have yet to be posted, but registration has already begun and, if precedent holds true, it will both be an excellent event and it will sell out. Click here to register.
This program is part of the USPTO’s continuing commitment to increase public awareness of intellectual property rights and the enforcement of these rights in the global marketplace.
Just in case, I repeat: these are excellent seminars and they are free.
