Forum Background

The comprehensive strategic partnership between the European Union (EU) and China turns 20 this year. Over the past two decades the EU and China, two of the world’s leading economies, have engaged in mutually beneficial cooperation in a win-win manner and achieved significant success in fields such as politics, economy, culture, and science. As of the end of 2022, EU-China bilateral trade volume reached $847.3 billion, with each side the second-largest trading partner of the other. The stock of two-way investment between China and the EU has exceeded $230 billion, benefiting people on both sides and contributing greatly to world peace and economic prosperity.

Looking ahead, the two sides hold great potential for cooperation and share common interests in promoting economic growth and financial stability, coping with the energy crisis, curbing inflation, and pursuing green and digital transitions. As such, they have decided to set up a financial working group under the China-EU High-Level Economic and Trade Dialogue (HED) mechanism to strengthen cooperation in financial areas such as financial liberalisation, infrastructure, and regulation, as well as sustainable finance and fintech. However, some tension does exist within the relationship – EU authorities have recently opened an anti-subsidy investigation into Chinese electric car imports, for example.

尊敬的会员，

10月27日，上海市十五届人大常委会第二十六次会议表决通过了《上海市反不正当竞争条例》（以下简称“《条例》”）并将于明年1月1日施行。本次通过的《条例》将上位法修订后的相关规定以及实践中总结的诸多新业态及问题纳入其中，在《反不正当竞争法》的框架内做了很多细化，但其中仍有某些界定较为模糊，增加了企业面临监管的合规压力。

中国欧盟商会有幸请到上海市人大常委会法制工作委员会两位老师莅临商会为会员公司深度解读《上海反不正当竞争条例》的立法思路，并解答会员针对该《条例》的疑问与顾虑。现诚邀企业报名参加，本次讲座向中国欧盟商会会员免费开放。

请在报名时备注是否为线上还是线下参加，并将报名信息（单位、姓名、职务、邮箱、手机）发至sthe@europeanchamber.com.cn邮箱。

After 12 years’ waiting, the 4th version of the Patent Law with an aim of further motivating innovations and improving the mechanism for cracking down patent infringements was finally passed on October 17, 2020. The amended Chinese patent law will take effect on June 1, 2021. Second Amendments introduced pharmaceutical patent-term extensions and established an early pharmaceutical patent-dispute resolution mechanism and patent linkage system that further protects the rights of patentees.

The European Chamber is delighted to invite Ms Mi LI, Principal at Rouse and the IP Consulting Director of Rouse China in Beijing to break down the changes and challenges, as well as outlooks ahead for our members in the pharmaceutical sector.
