With over 200 dedicated professionals, Beijing East IP has helped a full spectrum of clients – from startups to Fortune 500 corporations to domestic multinational companies – on their intellectual property issues in China.
On April 21, 2014, the Supreme Court published the list for Top 10 Intellectual Property Cases of China Courts in 2013, covering the civil lawsuits, the administrative lawsuits and the criminal lawsuits in the field of Intellectual Property. The second instance case Huawei Technologies Co Ltd vs. InterDigital handled by Guangdong High Court is on the list.
It is the very first case regarding license royalty disputes in China on standards of essential patent. It is also the first trial in China to apply the FRAND principle to determine the license royalty on standards of essential patent, and to put forward with specific referential factors for calculation.
Mr. Jason Wang, partner at Beijing East IP Law Firm, had the honor to act as one of the attorneys for InterDigital in this case of the first instance before Shenzhen Intermediate Court.
