China to set up standardized IPR service system

According to the guideline on promoting the establishment of standardized IPR service system, jointly released by State Intellectual Property Office of China（SIPO）, Standardization Administration of China, State Administration for Industry and Commerce of China and National Copyright Administration of China, China will initially establish an effective standardized IPR service system by the year of 2020. 

According to a representative from Planning and Development Department under SIPO, to establish a standardized IPR service system should mainly involve five tasks, namely, to build a technology organization, to enhance R&D, to foster pilot-programs, to strengthen cultivation of talents and to improve propaganda and implementation. According to this representative, as efforts to foster pilot-programs, a number of pilot demonstration projects will be gradually launched in nation-grade high-tech exploiting zones, IPR service industry cluster regions, model and pilot cities (parks) of IPR. Also, a number of pilot agencies with strong innovative competence, high-level service and of social influence, will be fostered.
