To successfully halt counterfeiting in China, it is essential for one to prove that his or her IPR have been infringed, backing by a significant volume of evidence. In Chinese Court the burden of proof lies with the plaintiff. As one proves his ownership via IPR certificates he must also prove the infringement via physical evidence including contracts, photographs of infringing products and proof of sale which have been validated by a notary public.

As a follow-up event of the meeting on the Trademark Law, this meeting aims to explain why the evidence of IPR infringement is important, what can be used and how to effectively secure the evidence needed. The European Chamber is pleased to invite Mr. Lionel Yan and Mr. Benjamin Miles from Blackpeak to share their best practice on evidence notarisation.

Are you an in-house counsel, a contract manager, a transactional or arbitration lawyer? When you received a call from your management team or your client at 6:30 pm asking you to conclude an arbitration clause within a few hours before the deal is sealed, how do you secure the best possible arbitration clause for your company or client, while bearing your business objectives in mind and making sure that the corporate policy is followed? What are the key points to consider while drafting the clause? What issues can you concede in return for more favourable terms in other parts of the arbitration clause? The recent legislative developments on arbitration, such as the interim measures between mainland China and Hong Kong, and the allowing of third-party funding, further complicate these issues.
