Intellectual property

Work highlights

Represented Canon in a patent infringement lawsuit involving two defendants who conduct suspect infringing acts as co-manufacturers and co-sellers. The decision of the case reflects the court’s resolution and efforts to strengthen the protection of patent right.

Represented a global pharmaceutical giant as plaintiff to appeal the China National Intellectual Property Administration’s decision and attend the hearing and successfully request the court to revoke that decision. This success broke the prevailing trend where crystal form patents were typically challenging to obtain and easily invalidated post-grant.
