The fifth in the series, <strong>IP in China 2020 \u2013 No longer a barrier to taking on the China market<\/strong>, offered insights on China&rsquo;s improving legal system and protection of intellectual property. Toronto-based law firm Jones &amp; Co. has been litigating to protect the intellectual property rights of clients in the Greater China Region for over a decade and has real experience of the progress that has been made. In this presentation, Paul Jones, Founder of Jones &amp; Co., introduced attendees to the structure of the PRC legal system as it applies to intellectual property, such as trademarks, copyrights, industrial designs, patents and trade secrets, and how businesses can use it to assess and reduce their risks when entering the market. Paul reviewed recent cases handled by his firm, showing that it is possible to track down counterfeiters, and that the courts do respond to well-presented evidence.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Participants who complete this six-part series will receive an official CCBC China Ready Certificate.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"CCBC Webinar: IP in China 2020\" width=\"1080\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/a4eNjycxO5c?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Presented by<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jonesco-law.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-52009 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/calendar.ccbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jones-Co-logo_v2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"88\" srcset=\"https:\/\/calendar.ccbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jones-Co-logo_v2.jpg 500w, https:\/\/calendar.ccbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Jones-Co-logo_v2-480x84.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 500px, 100vw\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>About the speaker:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-thumbnail wp-image-51994\" src=\"https:\/\/calendar.ccbc.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/07\/Paul-Jones-v2-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Paul Jones <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Founder, Jones &amp; Co.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Paul Jones is the founder of Jones &amp; Co., a boutique law firm specializing in intellectual property, technology licensing, franchising, distribution, e-commerce and competition issues.
