China Improves Trademark Protection for Overseas Investors
China is taking measures to combat trademark violations involving overseas companies in a bid to protect their rights and interests.
In recent months, the number of trademark infringement cases has increased considerably, seriously harming the interests of overseas investors.
According to a report released today by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, local administrations nationwide handled 665 trademark violation cases in the first half of the year, an annual increase of 16.3 percent.
Among them, 610 cases involved trademark abuses or bogus of overseas companies. The number of such cases was up more than 12 percent from the same period last year.
An official with the administration said that China will further enhance efforts in fighting against violations of the Trademark Law in the areas of circulation, printing, trademark dealings and applications to protect the rights of overseas investors.
