Profile

Culturally adept and business-savvy cross-border IP counsel

Ken Chang is an experienced intellectual property (IP) dealmaker, negotiator and problem solver who concentrates on overseas IP issues, with a focus on Asia. His counsel addresses areas such as cross-border transactions, IP licensing and disputes, monetization and overseas IP enforcement (particularly in China). Ken’s involvement with negotiations and disputes extends over a wide range of industries, including:

  • Biotech, pharmaceutical and medical device
  • Semiconductor
  • Consumer electronics
  • Textiles
  • Design services

International IP deals are complex and often difficult, especially in China. Clients rely on Ken for his experienced, flexible and business-oriented approach to overseas negotiations and disputes. His experience as the founder and managing partner for five years of a prior firm’s Shanghai office, and 20 years of dealing with IP in the Asia-Pacific region, positions him to provide insightful, practical and bespoke advice to clients.
