Grant Leach and Beau Jackson will present, "Strategies for protecting intellectual property in China: What Nebraska businesses need to know," for the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) China IP Road Show on Wednesday, April 19, 2022.
Nebraska business owners doing business in or with China may find their valuable intellectual property (IP) being infringed upon. Even businesses not operating in China may find counterfeit versions of their products for sale in China or the United States, or their trademarks registered in China without their knowledge.
During this free, in-person event, scheduled for 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. CT April 19 in Omaha, Nebraska, experts from the U.S. government, IP attorneys, and local business people will share insights on how U.S. rights holders can protect and enforce their IP in China and the United States.
Topics will include:
- What you need to know about protecting your patents, trademarks, trade secrets, and copyright in China (particularly for small- and medium-sized businesses)
- IP developments in China: Challenges and opportunities in a shifting IP environment
- Enforcing IP rights, in both China and the United States, against infringement originating in China
- U.S. government resources for U.S. companies
- IP in China: The Nebraska experience
