This event is organised by the China IP SME Helpdesk, a fellow EU-funded project assisting European SMEs in the Chinese market. To find out more, visit the official event page on the Helpdesk’s website.

In late June, China adopted the amended Trademark Law, which addresses many long-term concerns of SMEs while having an impact on trademark prosecution, enforcement and brand protection strategies of SMEs operating in or entering the China market. This webinar will provide an overview of the key changes, examine their practical implications to SMEs and discuss how SMEs can prepare for the evolving legal framework, as the amended law comes to force in January 2027.
