Introduction
The protection of intellectual property rights ("IPR") in the People's Republic of China ("PRC") continues to be the subject of both domestic and international attention. In recent years China has introduced new laws and regulations that improve the legislative environment for protection of IPR. New legislation has been issued in the areas of technology transfer and licensing, protection of integrated circuit layout-designs, computer software, domain names and electronic publications. In addition, many PRC intellectual property laws and regulations have been amended with the aim of becoming fully compliant with the Agreement on Trade-related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights ("TRIPS Agreement").
