Implications for Policymakers

  • First Online:
China’s Intellectual Property Regime for Innovation

Abstract

In this chapter, we provide recommendations about ways to reform China’s IP regime to make it more conducive to innovation. While many reforms could be suggested, we highlight reforms we believe are most important to addressing the issues discussed in Chaps. 27. These recommendations can serve as the basis for further discussions between academics and policymakers and other actors actively involved in China’s NIS.

The original version of the book was revised: Author’s belated correction has been incorporated. The correction to the book is available at https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-10404-7_11

Notes

  1. 1.

    In order to avoid patent trolling due in large part to the design of the US legal system, we do not suggest that China copy US IP Civil Procedure verbatim. However, we do believe that awarding higher IP damages and introducing a moderate discovery procedure enabling collection of evidence by IP rights holders will improve IP enforcement in China without strongly encouraging patent trolling.
