The protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights (IPR) is critically important to creating jobs, promoting innovation, and ensuring that families are purchasing safe products.

The protection and enforcement of intellectual property rights (IPR) in China is a top priority for both industry and government in both the U.S. and China. The reason for this is clear and can be seen in the recent Department of Commerce study on the importance of IP in the United States: IP-intensive industries support 40 million direct and indirect jobs which accounts for nearly 30 percent of total American jobs. As China continues to seek ways to grow its middle class and support small businesses, protecting IP is increasingly critical for China.
