WHAT: |
Quinn Emanuel hosted an unprecedented, one-of-a-kind sold-out event in the US in conjunction with a major legal firm from China, Zhong Lun in front of a standing room only crowd. The firms partnered and showcased a mock patent trial that took place in China, in which a foreign company was able to enforce its patents in China. A panel with the Chinese lawyers and judge as well as attorneys from Quinn Emanuel took place immediately following addressing key issues of intellectual property (IP) litigation in China and beyond. |

WHO: |
Quinn Emanuel attorneys; top Zhong Lun Chinese IP lawyers and a former judge from China; regional and global notables; industry VIPs; dignitaries; etc. |
|
|
WHEN:  |
Thursday, May 23, 2019- 10:00am to 2:30pm | |
|
WHY: |
China is now the third most important IP jurisdiction in the world. Already, more patents are filed in China than in any other country. Although Western companies are litigating IP disputes in China more frequently, most have little knowledge or experience of what a Chinese patent trial actually entails. Foreign lawyers are not even permitted to attend patent trials in China. This demonstration Chinese mock trial by Chinese lawyers before a Chinese judge is a unique opportunity to observe the process. |
