IPに占有権を維持するためには、組織に継続的だった保護を保証するメカニズムがなければならない。
まず、誰かは登録されていたIPの権利が妥当性を維持することを保障しなければならない。 商標は10年間一度に登録されている、従って登録はそのような妥当性の期間の終りの前に延長べきである。 そうする失敗は商標にすべての占有権の損失で起因する。 ドメイン・ネームは登録し安く、易いしかし維持料金は支払済でなければならない。 許可されたパテントにおよび設計に10年(設計および実用的なモデルパテントのために)または提出日からの20年の非拡張可能な妥当性が(発明のために)ある、継続的だった妥当性を保障するために年金は毎年支払われなければならない。 「保護の残りを対読みなさい。 施行: 中国あなたのIPRの作戦をどこで始めるか。 部IIは」またはコメントを掲示する

The continued pervasiveness of counterfeiting in China is not only a problem of law, but also one of enforcement. While China’s laws and regulations conform to the agreement on trade-related aspects of intellectual property rights (TRIPS) and other widely accepted international principles, certain parts of China’s protection mechanism have proven ineffective. Common examples are the high standards for criminal liability of counterfeiters, the high burden of evidence to prove bad faith registrations, and the difficulty to prove damages in civil proceedings. On the other hand, it is abundantly clear that the police, administrative authorities and courts often lack the resources, the knowledge or the determination to effectively combat infringements.
China’s own continuing development, and to a lesser extent international pressure, will gradually lead to improvements on the above issues, but this is not a process individual intellectual property (IP) owners can influence.

Having a meaningful footprint in China has become a strategic imperative for multinational companies from around the world. The attraction is China’s seemingly insatiable demand for products, services, capital and technology. George D. Martin, partner and chair of the Faegre & Benson China Practice, sees the current acquisition boom in China as the logical culmination of foreign investment trends that he first observed when practicing in Shanghai in the mid-1990s. Martin expects this M&A trend to continue. But in the years to come, he advises, it won’t be just foreign companies on the buy-side of cross-border M&A deals involving China.

Sourcing to China can be cost effective, but if something goes wrong, it could have a dramatic effect on your bottom line ― and negatively impact customer opinion of your business. Can we trust domestic producers and distributors to control quality with fervor equal to their pursuit of low wages? Cheap labor is the easy part; the quality thing is a much tougher nut to crack.

Sourcing to China can be cost effective, but if something goes wrong, it could have a dramatic effect on your bottom line ― and negatively impact customer opinion of your business. Can we trust domestic producers and distributors to control quality with fervor equal to their pursuit of low wages? Cheap labor is the easy part; the quality thing is a much tougher nut to crack.A product recall is a very visible and expensive sign of a serious quality problem. The life threatening potential of some problems long ago led American government and producers to develop recall and reverse distribution systems.
For the most part we’ve become good at figuring out which product is at risk, where it went, and executing the recall process with limited harm to life. But lately faith in American product-based businesses has been shaken by the apparent lack of due diligence in assuring low-wage Chinese suppliers meet the same standards as our own.
