Recent WTO disputes, an ongoing trade war, and significant rates of ongoing intellectual property (IP) infringement in China have amplified concerns about the strength of the country's IP regime. At the same time, across many indicators, China's IP regime is relatively supportive of European businesses. For European firms, this seeming contradiction is difficult to explain to fellow employees and top management in China -- let alone headquarters, clients, and government representatives. And yet, without a convincing explanation offered to these stakeholders, business activities in China may run sub-optimally at a time where competition is fiercer than ever. This working group meeting will seek to both explain and offer some solutions to this conundrum.
