Australia China Intellectual Property Roundtable
On September 30 2014 ACRI hosted a roundtable to discuss the complex bilateral issues surrounding intellectual property (IP) rights.
The roundtable focused on collaboration between Australia and China to tackle the proliferation of fake brands, cross-border enforcement of IP rights and problems of international jurisdiction and co-operation.
This seminar saw Chinese and Australian industry representatives, government and academia discuss the legal and policy issues and potential solutions relating to cross-border enforcement of IP rights between China and Australia.
The speakers elaborated on specific examples where contraband goods had been imported and sold onto the Australian market, unbeknown to Australian consumers.
Professor James Laurenceson, Deputy Director, Australia-China Relations Institute, chaired the panel of distinguished speakers including Professor Natalie Stoianoff, Director, Intellectual Property Program, UTS Faculty of Law, and Customs CEO Mike Pezzullo.
