State Intellectual Property Office of China (SIPO) Commissioner Shen Changyu has met with Davide Cucino, president of the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China (EUCCC), in Beijing to accept the EUCCC's European Business in China Position Paper 2013/2014.
Shen said that the EU and China are mutually important trade partners and they both keep a good relationship in the IP field.
For Chinese and European enterprises, the EUCCC offers not only a platform for EU enterprises to know about relative policies in China, but also an important channel for China to understand the needs of EU enterprises.
Shen pointed out that with the proposal of the utilization and protection of IPR at the 3rd Plenary Session of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, SIPO is working on the implementation of the spirit of the Plenary Session, and will keep strengthening relevant works on IP in 2014.
Shen stressed that SIPO is ready to enhance communication and relations with the EU enterprises, which not only helps improve services, but also benefits the innovation environment in China. He expressed hope that the EUCCC will continue to provide helpful suggestions to SIPO in the future.
Since the establishment of the EUCCC, it has enjoyed a good relationship with SIPO. Cucino said that many of the existing EU enterprises in China have brought great importance to the Chinese market, and will continuously expand their investment in China. He says he hopes that the two sides continue to strengthen communication and share innovation experiences with each other.
The EUCCC was established under the support of the EU delegation to China on October 19, 2000. Its founding members include 51 EU companies doing business in China. Its members have now reached more than 1,600, including European multinational enterprises and various small and medium enterprises.
