💄IP WORKING GROUP: Navigating the Chinese Market for French Cosmetics💅🏻 On June 26th, CCI FRANCE CHINE's Beijing office hosted an IP Working Group in collaboration with LLR Intellectual Property Group. The event listed the crucial steps for French cosmetics companies to succeed in China. As French brands continue to captivate Chinese consumers, significant opportunities arise for both renowned brands and SMEs, especially with the rise of e-commerce. To successfully enter the Chinese market, registering products with Chinese regulatory authorities and trademarks with the Chinese Trademark Office are essential steps. Experts Brenda LOU from CIRS Cosmetics Regulatory Service and DAI Fujuan from LLR Intellectual Property Group provided valuable understanding of these processes. Thank you to our speakers, coordinator 赵晶 from LLR Intellectual Property Group and all participants for making this conference a success! By providing expert insights and fostering collaborations, CCI FRANCE CHINE Working groups are dedicated to helping our members thrive and achieve sustainable growth in this dynamic environment.
