Data is an asset similar to intellectual property, isn't it? Of course it is. Data is valuable, and can and should be exploited, which is usually done through a data license. Data licenses are similar to other types of IP licenses, but data licenses often present unique issues that must be addressed, including data ownership and use, as well as the treatment of the original data set, data derived from the original data set, and usage data. Data licenses can and should materially circumscribe the ways in which data sets may be exploited by others. This session will provide an overview of the issues involved when negotiating data licenses.
Speaker: Barry Benjamin, Partner, Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton LLP

In the beginning of this year 2023, the China trademark office, now known as âChina National Intellectual Property Administration,â released a draft of amendments on China trademark law which provide some drastic changes targeted at solving bad-faith filing issues. In addition, in the past 2 or 3 years after the implementation of the current Trademark Law (2019) by adding Article 4 prohibiting bad-faith filings with no real intent to use, not only trademark squatters but also many brand owners have received refusals based on Article 4 trademark applications, in particular the brand owners' defensive filing program. Considering such new practices may cause some frustration to brand owners in their brand protection in China, the presentation will share thoughts about the recent changes in practice and potential legislative changes and offer suggestions on the best practices around Article 4 refusals in China.
