You are sincerely invited to join the Seminar: China IP 2020-2050 – Optimising for the BRI, CMI in light of ongoing US-China Trade Dispute co-organised by the European Chamber Southwest Chapter and Clyde & Co Law Firm on 4th September, 2019 (Wednesday) in Chengdu.

Background 背景

Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) – How can IP play a role to maximise your opportunities while managing the risks arising from the BRI and 'China Manufacturing Initiative 2025-50' (CMI) especially in light of the ongoing US-China Trade Disputes?

“一带一路”倡议 (BRI) – 如何同时管理在“一带一路”和“中国制造2025-2050”倡议下所产生的风险，发挥知识产权的作用，特别是鉴于当下的中美交易之争，最大限度地增加您的商业机会？

China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) is the most ambitious and significant economic project in the world today. The BRI currently spans more than 60 countries, representing over 65 per cent of the world’s population and a third of global GDP. The BRI is redrawing the global trade, infrastructure and logistics landscape; and of course, also the IP landscape.

由中国提出的“一带一路”倡议 (BRI) 如今已成为世界最具规模和影响力的经济合作战略。该倡议覆盖60多个国家，涉及65%的世界人口以及三分之一的全球GDP。它正在重绘世界贸易、基础建设和物资流通的新格局；当然，还有知识产权的格局。

Clyde & Co's Greater China IP Team in collaboration with the European Union Chamber of Commerce in Southwest China are pleased to invite you to this Seminar on the changing business landscape in the context of China's BRI; to discover the challenges and opportunities for European enterprises and their Chinese subsidiaries in today's intellectual property environment in China; and to discuss how to optimise IP strategies to the BRI, CMI and the volatile trade conditions, while equipping for the future.

其礼律师事务所大中华区的知识产权团队与中国欧盟商会西南地区合作，很高兴邀请您参加本次就中国“一带一路”倡议影响下不断变化的商业格局为主题的研讨会；讨论欧洲企业和其中国子公司在当今中国知识产权环境中所面临的挑战和机遇；以及如何未雨绸缪，优化其知识产权战略，以应对“一带一路”、“中国制造”和多变的贸易局势。
