Ferrante Intellectual Property’s participation in “China to Europe: scaling beyond borders” forum

On 18 March 2026, Jacqueline Chen, Legal Consultant and Coordinator of the Anti-Counterfeiting Department in the Shanghai office of Ferrante Intellectual Property, participated in the “China to Europe: Scaling Beyond Borders” forum organized by Jackson & Frank in Shanghai.

The event brought together industry professionals and advisors to discuss key challenges faced by companies expanding internationally, including tax, human resources, regulatory compliance, and cross-border strategy.

During the panel discussion, Jacqueline shared practical insights on intellectual property considerations in overseas expansion, with a particular focus on trademark strategy and customs protection. Drawing on the firm’s extensive enforcement experience, she emphasized the importance of securing trademark rights not only in target markets but also in manufacturing jurisdictions, as well as leveraging customs mechanisms to intercept infringing goods in cross-border trade.

The discussion also addressed common risks encountered by companies going global, including trademark conflicts arising from delayed filings and the increasing importance of cross-border enforcement in supply chain-driven markets.

As a full-service intellectual property firm with established offices in China and Vietnam, Ferrante Intellectual Property continues to support both international and domestic clients in navigating complex IP challenges in cross-border business operations, providing comprehensive legal services in both strategic planning and enforcement.

Ferrante Intellectual Property remains committed to assisting companies in protecting their brands and mitigating risks in overseas expansion, and looks forward to further contributing to discussions on international IP protection and best practices.
