TREE NEWS update: Chinese Premier Li Qiang met World Intellectual Property Organization Director General Daren Tang at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Li said China will play a larger role in global IP governance, support WIPO’s work and take a constructive part in modernizing the global IP service system, including discussions on artificial intelligence and frontier technologies. China will also expand capacity-building cooperation with WIPO for Global South countries and implement the Belt and Road cooperation agreement.

AI take
The significance lies in the explicit linkage of IP governance to AI and frontier technologies, signaling that rule-setting for emerging tech is moving into formal multilateral channels rather than remaining purely national or corporate. This affects IP-intensive sectors and cross-border service providers, and positions capacity-building for Global South countries as a parallel track to standard-setting. Whether the AI and frontier-tech discussions translate into concrete WIPO service modernization, and how the Belt and Road IP cooperation agreement is implemented, are the open questions worth watching.
