We are excited to congratulate the Hong Kong Med-Tech Association (HKMTA) on their new name, reflecting a stronger focus on technology. Our President and Managing Director, Jennifer Che, along with Principal Pauli Wong, were thrilled to celebrate this significant milestone with the organization at the recent HKMHDIA Medical Fair Forum.

Pauli, the official IP Advisor to HKMTA, joined Jennifer, one of the keynote speakers at the event, who shared about the importance of a well-thought-out intellectual property strategy for healthcare inventions. Jennifer emphasized the challenges of protecting biomedical products that operate at the intersection of regulatory affairs, IP, trade secret, and data privacy, particularly in the complex, multijurisdictional landscape of the Greater Bay Area (GBA). The event fostered valuable discussions on navigating these complexities, reinforcing our commitment to helping innovators safeguard their groundbreaking ideas.
