IPR mayors' seminar
The First Seminar on Intellectual Property and City Development for Mayors took place recently in Xiamen, Fujian province. The seminar was organized by the State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO) and attended by 28 mayors of national IPR model cities. It is the first such seminar for city mayors since SIPO launched the national IPR pilot and model work progam in 1999.
The mayors and experts spoke about the relationship between IPR development and city development.
SIPO Commissioner Tian Lipu said that a large number of companies, technologies and talents are gathered in cities, so reinforcing IPR work is needed for building innovation-oriented cities.
