Research on Intellectual Property Law Education in Higher Education Institutions under the Background of Optimizing the Business Environment

With the acceleration of global economic integration and informatization, intellectual property has become a core competitiveness of a country. Optimizing the business environment and promoting high-quality development have become major strategic measures for the economic development of a country or even the entire region. As an important base for knowledge production and dissemination, universities play a crucial role in optimizing the business environment. Intellectual property legal education is an important component of higher education, not only in cultivating specialized talents in intellectual property, but also in promoting technological innovation and economic development. In the context of optimizing the business environment, exploring the reform and innovation of intellectual property legal education in universities has important theoretical and practical significance for improving China's intellectual property protection level, promoting the transformation of scientific and technological achievements, and promoting high-quality socio-economic development.

The Impact of Innovative Activities in the Innovative Pharmaceutical Industry on Corporate Market Value

Innovative drugs refer to drugs with independent intellectual property patents. With the gradual improvement of China's intellectual property status, research on innovative drugs will bring high profits to enterprises. The innovative drug industry has always been in the eyes of investors in today's social conditions. At the same time, as an emerging investment option, what indicators will affect the changes in the market value of innovative drug companies is available for everyone to discuss. In this article, through the collection of Chinese innovation Companies in the pharmaceutical industry conducted linear regression analysis and found that the impact of corporate market value is closely related to innovation activities. At the same time, it was found that patent activities related to innovation activities will have a marginal effect and have a certain negative correlation. This article aims to help companies in the innovative drug industry find ways to increase their market value and help investors see the good news brought about by innovative activities in the stock market.

CPTPP Intellectual Property Rules and China's Response

In the complex and changeable international environment, due to the serious crisis of the multilateral trading system of the World Trade Organization and the influence of trade protectionism of Western countries, the United States and other developed countries try to promote trade facilitation through institutional changes and innovations in the field of intellectual property in order to seek more benefits. In order to avoid being marginalized in the reconstruction of international economic and trade rules and affecting trade exchanges between China and other countries, China formally submitted a written application to join the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP) in 2021. The CPTPP, which came into effect in 2018, covers a wide range of content, comprehensive and high standards. So far, the issue of intellectual property is still one of the most important issues that some countries want to solve if they want to join the CPTPP. Although CPTPP shelve the 11 high-standard provisions in TPP, there is still a certain gap between China's intellectual property legal system and the CPTPP intellectual property rules at present. In order to successfully connect with the CPTPP intellectual property rules, it is necessary for China to conduct a comprehensive investigation of its intellectual property text and analyze the differences between it and the domestic intellectual property legal system. And put forward countermeasures.

This paper provides valuable insights and strategic measures for advancing the development of China's intellectual property protection system and implementing the country's innovation-driven development strategy.

Navigating intellectual property challenges in China: Insights from RCEP and domestic factors

AbstractIn a high‐quality economic era, China needs innovative development. Intellectual property (IP) innovation and development are the first driving forces in China. At the same time, China has signed the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership agreement (RCEP), which has had a significant impact on the development of China's IP law. Under the combination of these two factors, China's IP innovation and development environment are worth studying. This paper uses the “factor analysis method” from five dimensions, including initiatives for civic awareness, regional IP development foundation, legislative support, law enforcement measures, and judicial protection, to study the development environment of IP innovation in 31 provincial regions in China, in the past 3 years. It is found that IP development in various regions of China is insufficient in some way, and the scores of different provinces vary greatly, so it will inevitably affect the development of China's IP integrally and then affect the construction process of strong provinces and cities with intellectual property rights (IPR). The novelty of this research is its in‐depth investigation into how the RCEP and global partnerships are influencing the transformation of China's intellectual property landscape. This transformation requires legal adjustments and underscores the importance of specialized IP judge training, alignment with international norms, and regional IP progress to realize China's ambition of becoming a dominant force in intellectual property. Combined with the fact that RCEP has come into effect in China and has had a significant impact, it is necessary to develop China's IP undertaking from legislative, judicial, law enforcement, and international cooperation aspects.

Study on the Limitations of Economic Digitalization and Development Strategies under the New Development Strategy

With the rapid development of the digital economy and the rise of the industrial Internet, China has made significant progress in terms of industrial competitiveness and industrial innovation and development. However, China's capacity for independent technology innovation must be improved. Firstly, China's independent innovation capacity in key core technology areas could be more robust. This mainly manifests in China's reliance on imported technologies and equipment in high-end manufacturing and emerging industries. Although China has made certain technological breakthroughs in specific fields, there is a particular gap between China and the international advanced level. Secondly, the investment in technological research and development of Chinese enterprises must be increased. Although the R&D investment of Chinese enterprises is gradually growing as more attention is paid to scientific and technological innovation, there still needs to be a significant gap compared with developed countries. In particular, the R&D investment of small and medium-sized enterprises is relatively low, resulting in the overall level of independent technological innovation not being high. Again, China needs to strengthen the protection of intellectual property rights. For a long time, the construction of China's intellectual property protection system has been lagging, and the problem of intellectual property infringement is relatively prominent, which has formed a particular obstacle to independent technological innovation. Therefore, studying economic digital development restrictions and development strategies has profound theoretical and practical significance in the new development pattern.

Diversified Mechanisms of Dispute Resolution for China's Foreign-Related Intellectual Property Right

China's increased competition with industrialised countries in terms of technological innovation during its current development transition has led to an increased demand for its intellectual property resources. At the same time, globalisation has further highlighted the inevitability of China facing foreign-related intellectual property challenges, prompting a focus on resolving such disputes. However, managing intellectual property right litigation relating to other countries remains difficult due to the unique types of foreign-related intellectual property right cases and the intricacies of applying national laws. In order to improve China's intellectual property dispute resolution framework and make it more effective and fairer, this paper will propose the shortcomings of the current litigation procedures through the case analysis and data analysis, and confirm that the flexible and reasonable use of diversified dispute resolution mechanisms will help China better deal with foreign-related intellectual property issues. While advocating a diversified dispute resolution framework for China's foreign-related intellectual property rights, it also provides possible suggestions for its construction.

Intellectual property judicial protection, innovation factor input, and corporate innovation: Evidence from the establishment of intellectual property courts in China

AbstractBased on the establishment of China's intellectual property (IP) courts, this article examines the impact of intellectual property judicial protection (IPJP) on corporate innovation using the sample of China's A‐shared listed firms from 2013 to 2021 by the time‐varying difference‐in‐differences (DID) model. The result shows that IP courts have a significant positive effect on corporate innovation, mainly by increasing innovation factor input, including expenditure of R&D funds and R&D personnel quantity. Additionally, the effect is stronger for invention patents and in non‐state‐owned firms, small firms, high‐tech firms, and firms with low financing constraints.

A novel easy-to-desorb eluant contributes to address environmental contamination of African swine fever virus

African swine fever virus (ASFV) is a highly pathogenic and rapidly disseminated virus with strong viability in the environment, suggesting the importance of environmental detection for prevention and control in all the pig industry. However, the detection results of environmental swabs cannot always reflect the accurate status of viral pollution, leading to persistent ASFV environmental contamination. In this study, we developed an ASFV eluant with higher environmental ASFV detection efficiency relative to 0.85% saline solution, which obtains the patent certificate issued by the China Intellectual Property Office (patent number:202010976050.9). qPCR analysis showed that in the environmental swab samples, the number of viral copies was 100 times higher for the ASFV eluant treatment than the traditional eluant treatment (0.85% saline solution). And besides, the high sensitivity of the ASFV eluant had be verified in a slaughterhouse environmental sampling detection. In soil samples, the ASFV eluent showed the same extraction effect as the TIANamp Soil DNA Kit, in contrast to no extraction effect for 0.85% saline solution. Simultaneously, this eluent could protect ASFV from degradation and allow the transportation of samples at ambient temperature without refrigeration. In clinical practice, we monitored the environmental contamination condition of the ASFV in a large-scale pig farm. The results shown that the ASFV load decreased after every disinfection in environment. This study provides an effective solution for surveilling the potential threat of ASFV in environment.

The refusal to license intellectual property as an antitrust violation in China: how should the current approach be improved?

The holder of intellectual property is entitled to exploit its intellectual property in principle. However, China’s Anti-monopoly Law prohibits the anti-competitive refusal to deal, including the refusal to license intellectual property, which might constitute an abuse of market dominance. Existing anti-monopoly rules related to the refusal to license intellectual property in China are rather general and lack a definite test for the assessment, leaving too much discretion for Chinese competition authorities to interpret the law. As the two main antitrust jurisdictions globally, the US and the EU have different approaches to the refusal to license intellectual property. By reviewing comparative experience, the EU approach is more appropriate for China. It is suggested that China should establish a clear-up test to analyse the refusal to license intellectual property cases under the Anti-monopoly Law, considering the indispensability of intellectual property and its influences on innovation. Meanwhile, Chinese law should include provisions on the remedy of a refusal to license. In this regard, China can make its anti-monopoly enforcement as to the refusal to license more transparent and build up a stable expectation for both domestic and foreign high-tech undertakings.

Experimental study on alkali reduction of film-coated porous ecological concrete by microbial calcium carbonate precipitation technology

Some plants do not grow due to the high pH levels of ecological concrete pore solutions. In this paper, we design and build an integrated device featuring a combined microbial film and a transverse/U-shaped grouting film. We have applied to the China Intellectual Property Office for an invention patent on this device. The device overcomes the blockage of the grouting port caused by microbial and vertical grouting. The vertical grouting tube leaves holes inside a specimen, reducing the compressive strength, while the integrated device optimizes and decreases variation in the recycling of microbial bacteria. The reduction in the pore alkalinity of porous ecological concrete resulting from the microbial grouting film of this device is larger than that resulting from a microbial sprayed film. The pH values of porous ecological concrete with microbial grouting films and microbial sprayed films are obtained by the pure slurry soaking method and solid–liquid extraction method, respectively. The pH value is lower for the film obtained by the pure slurry soaking method than for that obtained by the solid–liquid extraction method. Conversely, the pH value of porous ecological concrete with a microbial grouting film is reduced to approximately 8 at an age of 56 days. The compressive strengths of the porous ecological concrete specimens with the two films are almost the same. The results of this study provide the necessary theoretical basis for developing alkali reduction technology for porous ecological concrete with environmental and economic benefits.

Does university-industry collaboration improve firm productivity? Evidence from China.

China's high-quality development cannot be achieved without high-quality research. As the university is an indispensable source of advanced research, analyzing the impact of university-industry collaboration (UIC) on firm performance helps us understand the significance of universities for China's economic development and innovation activities. As existing research does not pay attention to the impact of UIC on the productivity of Chinese firms, we examine the impact of such collaboration on firm productivity using natural language processing and by matching China's intellectual property and listed firms' operations databases. The empirical results show that UIC can promote firm productivity by improving the quality of their innovations, strengthening internalization efficiency, and broadening their research horizons. Moreover, the UIC process has a pronounced effect on promoting firm productivity in technology- and intellectual property-intensive industries. From the UIC perspective, we interpret China's economic development and provide new insights for developing countries regarding using universities to alleviate the insufficiency of private R&D investments.

Types and Methods of Assessing the Value of Intellectual Property Pledge Financing

China has a large stock of intellectual properties and a strong capacity for indirect financing. In the process of shifting from factor inputs supporting high economic growth to technological innovation contributing to high-quality economic development, intellectual property pledge financing plays an extremely important role. Moreover, as a new financing channel, intellectual property pledge financing can effectively alleviate the financial pressure on the development of small and medium-sized enterprises. Additionally, intellectual property pledge financing can also help promote the transformation of knowledge achievements and alleviate the financial problems of enterprises to a certain extent. Although China's intellectual property pledge financing has seen rapid development in recent years, there is still a large gap compared to the number of intellectual properties and the financing needs of enterprises. This is mainly attributed to the easy depreciation of intellectual properties, instability of rights, and other characteristics, which cause difficulties in assessing the value of intellectual property pledge financing and aggravates the risk and difficulty of intellectual property pledge financing. Therefore, how to scientifically assess the value of intellectual properties for the purpose of pledge financing has become an issue worthy of in-depth study and exploration at this stage.

Enigma of Relationship between Digital Economy and Intellectual Property Rights: Reflections on Innovation in Digital Economy Represented by Cloud Computing

INTRODUCTION: The development of the digital economy and intellectual property management represented by cloud computing has promoted the progress of China's modernization road. Cloud computing plays a vital role in various industries, and the control of intellectual property rights in the digital economy represented by cloud computing is closely connected with the high-quality development of China's digital economy, the construction of a robust intellectual property country, and the modernization of the national government. China's intellectual property management capability and digital economy management system are advanced, but practical difficulties still exist at home and abroad.
 OBJECTIVES: To improve the development level of computer information technology such as cloud computing; to promote the integrated development of digital economy and intellectual property rights; to solve the protection problems in the practical application of intellectual property rights with information technology; and to promote the coordinated development of digital economy and intellectual property rights represented by cloud computing.
 METHODS: Analyzes the role of intranet in protecting business information from the technical perspective of cloud computing; puts forward the hypothesis of the relationship between the digital economy and intellectual property rights by using literature research; and applies the empirical method to verify the use of patent data of state-owned enterprises and the total index of the regional digital economy.
 RESULTS: The results of the study show that there is a significant positive correlation between the level of development of cloud computing, the Digital Economy, and the internal cloud computing network of the company, which meets the external conditions of the lack of capacity of the Digital Economy and strengthens the globalization of the cloud computing cooperation network.
 CONCLUSION: Companies can manage the risk of data loss in the digital economy by adapting their internal cloud computing capabilities. After in-house processing and multiple reliability tests, the impact of the digital economy, represented by cloud computing, on supply chain innovation remains significant. In the post-financial crisis era, the effect of the digital economy on chain innovation is important because it is a cloud computing technology-intensive production chain with low dependence on external technologies. The digital economy has a threshold effect on innovation in the production chain. With the strengthening of intellectual property protection, the marginal impact of cloud computing and the digital economy on chain innovation increases significantly.

The impact of green human capital of entrepreneur on enterprise green innovation: A study based on the theory of pro-environmental behavior

Enterprises are profit-seeking, but environmental issues arising from business operations also need to be considered. Based on pro-environmental behavior theory and using data from Chinese A-share listed firms and the China Intellectual Property Office, this paper explores the effective ways in which the green element of entrepreneurs can enhance Enterprises’ green innovation from the perspective of human capital. The study finds that reshaping entrepreneurs' behavior is conducive to resolving the incompatibility between profit-seeking and environmental goals of enterprises. The green human capital can motivate entrepreneurs to adopt more pro-environmental behaviors, enhance enterprises’ green innovation capabilities and promote their compliance with environmental policy requirements. The study bridges the insufficient between Upper Echelon Theory and Imprinting Theory, and extends the study of human capital.

Current Situation, Problems and Countermeasures of Judicial Protection of Intellectual Property in China

Current Situation, Problems and Countermeasures of Judicial Protection of Intellectual Property in China

The impact of judicial protection of intellectual property on digital innovation: Evidence from China

Using the patent data of Chinese A-share listed companies from 2009 to 2020 and the pilot of China's intellectual property (IP) courts in late 2014, we apply a triple difference (DDD) method to estimate the effect of judicial protection of IP on corporate digital innovation. Our findings suggest that enhanced judicial protection of IP has a positive impact on corporate digital innovation, and that it contributes more to underlying digital technology innovation. Moreover, small firms are more likely to be affected by judicial protection of IP in their digital innovation activities than large firms.

Comparative Analysis of Intellectual Property Clauses of RCEP and CPTPP

As two of the most important free trade agreements in world today, CPTPP is the most advanced and detailed in terms of intellectual property rules among international trade agreements so far, while RCEP is the most extensive agreement on intellectual property signed by China. Through the comparison and analysis of intellectual property clauses under these two agreements, it can be seen that the overall protection of RCEP is less than CPTPP. However, the level of RCEP rules tends to be more balanced to apply to countries at all stages of development. At present, the level of China's intellectual property rules is in line with RCEP. In order to realize the construction of a strong intellectual property country, we should first face up to the gap between the relevant domestic laws and the most advanced international level, and appropriately improve the patents and enforcement of intellectual property based on the relevant provisions of CPTPP. At the same time, China should play a leading role in the protection of genetic resources and strive for more voice for developing countries. Secondly, the Chinese government should strengthen administrative law enforcement and supervision. Moreover, China should increase its efforts to open up to the outside world and lead the construction of an international intellectual property system.
