We would like to study carefully the programme for the construction of intellectual property power (2021-2035) and the plan for the protection and application of intellectual property in the 14th five-year national intellectual property in guangdong province, in which the significance of the full chain of intellectual property protection is recognized and grasped, and the priority tasks of intellectual property construction are effectively addressed。
Richmond has stated that how to strengthen the judicial protection of intellectual property rights and meet new demands for the protection of intellectual property rights is both an unprecedented opportunity and an unprecedented challenge to our judicial protection of intellectual property rights. The guangzhou court of intellectual property will continue to promote intellectual property rights “severe protection, greater protection, faster protection and protection”, enhance communication on intellectual property rights, and continue to enhance judicial capacity for equal protection of intellectual property rights, acting with due diligence and responsibility。
Li qing, executive director of the huang po institute of foreign trade university of guangdong, stated that the huang po institute of foreign trade university of guangdong (postgraduate school) and the china south institute of international intellectual property are closely following the latest intellectual property laws and regulations, policy measures and typical cases in countries and regions along the way, and that the organization of the “ringnam conference on intellectual property litigation” has helped to take full advantage of the modeling role of typical cases, to deepen the academic research value of cases and to refine the rules of adjudication in due course, thus guiding intellectual property protection practice。
Zhong jianxian indicated that in recent years the guangzhou development zone has advanced the comprehensive reform of the use and protection of intellectual property rights (iprs) through the establishment of an integrated and integrated mechanism for the protection of intellectual property rights, such as justice, administrative enforcement, arbitration mediation, rapid advocacy, overseas protection, and industry self-regulation, in order to take more concrete steps to strengthen the full protection of intellectual property rights, optimize the system of intellectual property services and advance towards the establishment of model parks in countries with strong intellectual property rights。
According to deng, the congress has increased the level of legalization of intellectual property protection and has provided stronger support for the construction of a first-class bay area in the bay of australia, the quality of the country's economy and the promotion of a new development landscape. The fact that, over the years, ten typical cases of intellectual property have been selected in provinces, municipalities and departments at all levels and in all sectors throughout the country, represented by legal counsel in guangzhou, is a strong indication of the extent to which intellectual property lawyers in guangzhou have responded to national policy calls to play a full professional role in the chain of intellectual property protection。
According to goki, as intellectual property protection continues to increase and the principle of punitive compensation for intellectual property rights is gradually being implemented, intellectual property litigation will continue to move in the short term in a broader, higher and more robust direction. Higher demands are placed on parties involved in ipr litigation, legal services, support services, etc., and there is a need to continue to improve the capacity and level of ipr litigation. It is hoped that this forum will be used to exchange experiences, learn from practice, analyse cases and assess the situation。
