Last Minute Opportunity to Learn About Enforcing IP Rights in China
November 16, 2011
Michael Atkins in Seattle Updates, Trademark Law Resources

It’s kind of last-minute, but I was just notified about a CLE program that seems great.

On Friday, Prof. Zhang Guangliang of Renmin University of China and visiting scholar at UW School of Law is going to talk about “Intellectual Property Enforcement in China — From the Perspectives of International Companies.”

It’s Friday morning. Registration and coffee service starts at 8:45. Prof. Guangliang will speak for one hour. It’s at the King County Bar Association (1200 Fifth Avenue, Suite 600, in Seattle) and is avialable via live webcast. It offers one CLE credit and is free for KCBA members. RSVP is requested to Denise Medlock, DeniseM@kcba.org.

Prof. Guangliang has an impressive background. He specializes in intellectual property at what’s regarded as the Harvard Law School (or University of Minnesota Law School) of China. From 1994 to 2007, he served as a judge and acting chief judge of the IP Tribunal at Beijing No. 1 Intermediate People’s Court. He’s currently at UWSL as Visiting Scholar. He holds a U.S. LL.M. degree and reportedly speaks excellent English.

This is a great opportunity. I’ve already got a number of questions in mind. If you’re free, bring yours, too!
