SIPO unveiled China's first group of IP demonstration cities on April 27.

The majority of the 23 cities are in developed coastal regions, but the inland cities of Chengdu, Xi'an and Harbin are also on the list.

Selected from 104 candidate cities across the country, the finalists are home to "outstanding examples" of IP creation, use, protection and overall effort, said SIPO Commissioner Tian Lipu.
