摘要

Multinational companies have less ability to effect change in China's intellectual property laws than even a decade ago, according to a former senior counsel covering China IP issues for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. Highlighting one of the most significant developments in Asia's biggest economy since he first arrived in China in 2004 as IP attache for the U.S. embassy, Mark A. Cohen, currendy a visiting professor at Renmin University of China, Beijing, said that the "good news is that China is interested in IP."
