Companies thus need to take their own steps to combat and prevent IPR infringements, as some of the companies most successful in curbing IPR violations have done. Only by understanding China's regulatory and enforcement regimes, and their weaknesses, can foreign companies craft appropriate intellectual property protection strategies. While companies can catch and punish IPR violators, preventing infringements is preferable. Prevention entails using legal protection options, dedicating resources to IP protection efforts, establishing relationships with relevant PRC officials, and including strong confidentiality and licensing clauses in contracts, among other practices.
