During an auto parts fair held in Jinan, capital of Shandong province in mid-October, local authorities put together a team incorporating enforcement officials and legal aid professionals in a bid to handle intellectual property disputes. The group settled 10 patent disputes on-site. This year, the host city has focused on fighting counterfeits in such sectors as pharmaceuticals, home appliances and electronics. Key venues under supervision include malls, supermarkets, online shops and exhibitions and fairs.
