Summary: | Despite a slowdown in China’s GDP growth from the double-digit heights of the last decade, it is still expanding at over 7% per annum – a growth rate that looks more sustainable.

Growth in the developed economies, meanwhile, remains fragile in the wake of their post-2008 financial crisis recessions. It is not surprising, therefore, that the Boards of many foreign companies are counting on winning share in the China market to support their top-line growth in coming years. They should be in no doubt, however, that to do so will necessitate more and more of their high-value technologies, trade secrets and know-how being exposed to the risks and vagaries of the Chinese intellectual property (IP) environment. |
