SHANGHAI Party Secretary Han Zheng met Francis Gurry, director general of the World Intellectual Property Organization on Tuesday.

Han said that innovation is a key strategic resource and intellectual property right protection is the foundation of innovation. Innovation is very essential for China and for Shanghai particularly.

Han added that Shanghai will fully adopt innovation-driven development. If intellectual property rights aren't protected, innovation will not be sustainable and Shanghai would have no future without sustainable innovation.

Han also said that Shanghai is striving to become a global innovation center. The government will adopt IPR strategies in the whole process, improve laws and regulations, reform relevant systems and raise IPR awareness among residents.

Han thanked WIPO's help to Shanghai and hoped that the Shanghai government can hear more advice from the organization and expected closer cooperation between the organization and the municipal government.

Gurry said that WIPO's cooperation with the Shanghai government has been very successful. Shanghai’s achievements in IPR have been impressive particularly for the effectiveness of Shanghai IPR Court.

Gurry added that the importance of innovation has been globally understood. Innovation is essential for economic development and improving people’s livelihood, which will promote IPR protection in the world. Shanghai’s practices can be learnt as models for other cities in the world.

Shanghai Vice Mayor Zhao Wen also joined the meeting.
