CPA Honoured with the Sole Award of China Patent Prosecution Firm of the Year

China Patent Agent (H.K.) Ltd. (CPA) is pleased to report that at the recent award presentation ceremony of Global IP Awards jointly organised by Intellectual Property Asset Management (IAM) and World Trademark Review (WTR), our firm was conferred the sole award of "China Patent Prosecution Firm of the Year 2024".

The winners of the Global IP Awards were selected by the IAM and WTR research teams on the basis of thousands of questionnaires and interviews gathering professional opinions of IP practitioners and corporate counsel worldwide. The selection adopted a wide range of criteria relating to excellence, achievement and market reputation to recognise the outstanding achievements of legal firms in IP prosecution, litigation and transactional work during 2023-2024.

Earlier this year in the IAM Patent 1000, reflecting our overall strong performance in the patent field, CPA was named a gold band firm in both patent prosecution and patent litigation in China. CPA has been on the list for 13 consecutive years ever since the launch of IAM Patent 1000.

This year our firm is celebrating its 40th anniversary. After four decades' growth, CPA has developed into one of the largest IP agencies in China with about 230 patent attorneys, 40 trademark attorneys and 20 litigators, providing both domestic and foreign clients with comprehensive, one-stop, efficient, and high-quality IP legal services including prosecution, litigation, mediation, licensing, assignment, and consulting in the areas of patent, trademark, copyright, domain name, and anti-unfair competition. In recent years, in addition to maintaining its leading position in terms of number of patent and trademark applications in China handled on behalf of foreign applicants, our firm has also been actively expanding its service of helping domestic applicants with their international patent and trademark applications. Looking forward, we will continue to commit ourselves to providing a wider range of quality services while contributing to the full development of IP protection for enterprises in China and overseas.
