Wang Shaohua

Senior Economist in Intellectual Property

Wang brings a well-rounded perspective to counseling clients, built through decades of work tackling numerous IP challenges, including utility and design patents, trademarks, copyrights, licensing, and more.

Wang spent 5 years in-house at innojoy, where he managed the international patent portfolios for substantial clients. In this role he gained a broad base of knowledge, working with a variety of departments from marketing to sales and research and development. When counseling clients, he draws upon his first-hand knowledge of their challenges and opportunities and broad experience to provide a holistic, value-driven approach.

Wang is often asked to consult in the early stages of developing or assessing an intellectual property strategy, as he is known for his ability to analyze the strategy from all angles without any blind spots or preconceived opinions. He asks vital questions on the client’s industry, competitors, technology, products, markets, overseas activity, opportunities for growth, existing IP portfolio, and more to help clients critically analyze their approach for IP value creation and protection.
