BEIJING, June 5 -- China has achieved remarkable results in intellectual property right (IPR) protection, according to an official at the State Intellectual Property Office Tuesday.
Shen Changyu, head of the office, made the remarks at a forum in Beijing. The forum evaluated the country's IPR achievements since 2008, when a national IPR strategy was unveiled.
"China will accelerate the modernization of the IPR governance system and ability and further promote the application and transformation of intellectual property to create more social benefits," Shen said,
Yan Junqi, an expert of the IPR evaluation group, said China had made remarkable achievements in implementing the national IPR strategy. And the strategy supported economic and social development.
China made 1.38 million patent applications for inventions in 2017, up 14.2 percent, the highest in seven years.
FORCEFUL MEASURES
China now has three IPR courts and is revising its Patent Law to establish a punitive damage system for intellectual property infringement.
Since 2008, China has revised its trademark and copyright laws, and an increasingly sound intellectual property system is taking shape.
In the past five years, 192,000 cases of patent infringement and counterfeiting were investigated and punished in China, as well as 173,000 cases of trademark infringement and counterfeiting.
The level of social satisfaction with IPR protection in China climbed from a score of 63.69 to 76.69 between 2017 and 2017, according to a State Intellectual Property Office survey.
