IPR issues in China are often discussed in terms of politics, focusing on why China’s IPR laws are not enforced. Less often does the discussion steer to what companies should actually do in practice while operating in such an IPR environment.
Maya Alexandri, who writes for Danwei on IPR issues and teaches IPR as a visiting professor at Tsinghua University, talks briefly about IPR-related policies at foreign companies coming into China. She then shares lessons from her experience litigating Educational Testing Service’s case against China’s well known test prep company, New Oriental.
