How care and honour come into play when dealing with IP

John Eastwood – founding partner of Eiger Law and head of the firm’s intellectual property and technology practice – has extensive experience counseling clients on IP matters and more, both within Asia and on both sides of the Strait in Greater China. As chair of the European Chamber of Commerce Taiwan Intellectual Property Rights Committee, he has also worked closely with the European Commission, the U.S. State Department, prominent academics, and local government authorities on IP policy matters.

In this conversation with PitchMark managing partner Mark Laudi, he shares more about IP protection and enforcement in Taiwan and mainland China. This discussion was first streamed for the 2021 World Congress of the International Association for the Protection of Intellectual Property. Known as AIPPI, it is the world’s leading non-profit association dedicated to the development and improvement of laws for IP protection, and PitchMark was the Platinum Sponsor for this year's World Congress.
