On September 15, hosted by Legal Daily, the First China Summit Forum on Trade Secrets was held in Media Center, Beijing. Over 300 representatives including trade secrets experts, chiefs of industries, lawyers and government officials attended the forum to have in-depth discussion about China’s protection of trade secrets of enterprises.
Starting from October 1, the General Provisions of Civil Law will take into force. It is one of its highlights to include trade secrets into the objects of IP protection. Now the Standing Committee of National People’s Congress is amending the provisions concerning trade secret protection in the Law against Unfair Competition, which marks the high importance attached by China to the work of trade secret protection.
