On the one hand, Chinese platforms offer highly efficient and cost-effective distribution of goods; on the other, this growth has sometimes highlighted shortcomings in legal compliance, particularly with respect to intellectual property. Among Asian e-commerce platforms, Alibaba stands out not only as one of the largest and longest established, but also as one of the most advanced in terms of compliance and legal responsibility. During this session, members of the IPWG will engage in a dialogue with Claudio Bergonzi to discuss the current state of IP protection across Alibaba Group’s international platforms. This is a unique opportunity to gain insights directly from a leading player shaping policy and industry trends at the highest level. Don’t miss out—seats are limited.
