Innovation's Crouching Tiger (Second Edition)

No One Will Remain Unaffected.

Upon the inception of the US-China trade war, China's IP regime experienced rapid-fire development. The STAR market and the first patent securitization deal are a few of many developments accelerated by this conflict showing that the market appetite for IP monetization has reached an extraordinary level in China.

Equipped with a three-lens methodology and case studies, Dr. Chung offers countless resources to help readers successfully make their own plan of action in this unprecedented time and is the first guide of its kind in English. Now, more than ever, is the best time to take action. To collaborate or to compete.
