Focused Haidian Area 'Fully Mature' After 2 Years' Development

A focused intellectual property area in Beijing is fully mature after about two year's development and aims to be a site where IP is well respected and used, said Wang Ying, IP chief in Haidian district.


Officials in Beijing and Haidian unveiled the area's nameplate on October 11 at the opening ceremony of the 2015 Zhongguancun Innovation & Entrepreneurship Festival.


"We officially publicized the scope and orientation of the area at the ceremony," said Wang, adding that the site, known as IP and Standardization Street, would now begin a new journey.


The area is home to more than 700 IP service organizations that offer wide-ranging IP services including information consultation, lawsuits, operation, collateral financing and assessment. It is in the heart of Zhongguancun Science Park and has three clusters: the Zhongguancun IP buildings, a building in Beihang University and the China International Technology Transfer Center.


The area aims to become a leading site in China in terms of IP service and an active area of technology transfer and industrialization, Wang said.
