This comes at a time when Chinese enterprises, regrettably, display a subdued awareness of IP, often lacking the necessary defensive mechanisms against potential IP threats. As Chinese businesses set their sights overseas, there's a pressing need for legal champions deeply rooted in Chinese ethos - those who are not only well-versed in sòng bạc máy đánh bạcperty intricacies but are also adept at navigating the nuanced landscape of Chinese corporations and have a global operational footprint. This becomes even more critical as IP issues often intersect with national security matters.

Through illustrative case studies, she delved into the nuances businesses must navigate during IP due diligence. Wang stressed that the conclusion of a cross-border M&A deal doesn't signal an end to vigilance. There remains a need to meticulously oversee transition rights, evaluations, and post-M&A IP integrations.

Later, Ye Juan, a Senior Advisor at Landing Law Offices, enlightened the audience with her insights on "IP Strategies and Risk Mitigation for Tech Companies in the US." Initiating her discourse, Ye elucidated the intricacies of the US IP ecosystem, encompassing patents, trademarks, and copyrights. Adopting an outward-facing lens, she dissected potential IP infringement risks in the US. Highlighting specific examples, she touched upon risks like trademark squatting and the implications of Temporary Restraining Orders (TROs). Pivoting to an inward-looking perspective, Ye underscored the need for businesses to fortify their risk-awareness, advocating a dual-pronged approach of internal governance and collaborative risk assessment.
