About this episode
Ever wonder what makes an idea legally yours—or how patents and copyrights fuel billion-dollar industries? That is the magic of intellectual property, and this week, China welcomes the AIPPI World Congress for the first time in its 127-year history as the city of Hangzhou plays host. With over 4 million valid invention patents and a reputation for rapid innovation, China's IP story is nothing short of groundbreaking. Today we explore the Congress, take a look at China's achievements, and discuss how protecting great ideas is essential for building the future. On the show: Niu Honglin, Steve Hatherly & Yushun
