Faculty members and postgraduate students are increasingly aware of the copyright issues in teaching, learning, and research. Copyright is only part of Intellectual Property that also covers other intangible property right such as trade marks, patents, designs, plant varieties and the layout design of integrated circuits. Intellectual property protection is important to Hong Kong being an international trading centre. If you want to know more about the IP policy and current practices, you are welcome to join the conference on IP Protection and Enforcement: from Policy to Strategy to Practice organized by Faculty of Law, CUHK. 

The conference has two major focuses. The first session focuses on the enforcement practices and IP initiatives by the Government of the Hong Kong SAR. The speakers are top officials from the Intellectual Property Department, Customs and Excise Department, and Hong Kong Trade Development Council. The second session focuses on the best enforcement practices in the business sector. The speakers are industry leaders and top IP lawyers.
