Model IP city
Qingdao won praise for its continuing success as a National Intellectual Property Model City in China in August 2009.
The Assessment Expert Group on National Intellectual Property Model Cities on Aug 14 visited Qingdao to evaluate the city's work.
Qingdao was named a model city in May 2007.
The experts reported the city had been successful in rapidly developing an infrastructure to enforce IP protections while also promoting Qingdao as an innovation-friendly city.
The Qingdao Municipal People's Government has established an IP Work Leadership Group and implemented a series of policies to promote the development and protection of IP-related businesses.
