A one-stop platform for startups to leverage

To protect the intellectual property rights of innovation-oriented enterprises in the Zhangjiang National Innovation Demonstration Zone, Shanghai Jingyuan Group will be establishing an IP ecosphere for startups in the zone.

The private-owned company, which is focused on IP services, has taken advantage of resources from high-end service organizations to form an IP rights service association that provides services including IP development, IP protection, patent design and credit rating.

"This is like setting up a community that offers IP related services for newly established technology companies that don't have enough assets and capital to protect their core technologies," said Qiu Kejun, the general manager of Shanghai Jingyuan Group.
