China has become a patent powerhouse lately, but has China become more innovative? Have the frequent changes in Chinese patent law affected the trend of patenting and innovation in China? Using China as a case study, this talk attempts to find correlation, if any, between patenting, patent law reform and innovation.

She specializes in intellectual property law with a focus on cross-disciplinary study on intellectual property and cutting-edge technologies such as biotechnology and information technology, and publishes extensively in relevant area including a book entitled Imitation to Innovation in China: the Role of Patents in Biotechnology and Pharmaceutical Industries (Edward Elgar, 2010). Dr Li is currently an elected Council Member of the Intellectual Property Law Association of China Law Society; a Regional Coordinator for copyright law amendment project under China State Administration of Copyright, a co-Legal Project Lead of Hong Kong Creative Commons, an Honorary Advisor to Hong Kong Institute of Patent Attorneys, and an Associate External Academic Advisor for City University of Hong Kong School of Law.
