CGPA Sends Notification Protecting the Intellectual Property Rights of 'China Game Developers Conference'

BEIJING, May 8 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Targeting the IP protection of CGDC, recently CGPA once again sent an Official Notification to its members, 130 game companies in China in all, calling on them to protect the intellectual property rights of CGDC and the interests of the China game industry. The Notification encourages members to give resistance to the event called GDC China, organized by UBM in China, which infringes the IP of CGDC.

The Official Notification is below:

The 2nd China Game Developers Conference ("CGDC"), the preparation of which has been supported and guided by relevant authorities including General Administration of Press and Publication of P.R. China, is to be held in July this year by China Game Publishers Association (CGPA) and Howell International Trade Fair Ltd. To the knowledge of the organizers of the 1st CGDC, a company named United Business Media ("UBM") recently announced that, after the 1st "Game Developers Conference-China" (which in fact never existed), it would host the 2nd "GDC-China" in October this year in China. It not only lied that the 1st CGDC was in fact the 1st "GDC-China" but also, without authorization from the organizer of the 1st CGDC, used the photos, the conference program and information about the Advisory Board and speakers of the 1st CGDC for promotion of its own event. What UBM has done clearly amounts to violation of the intellectual property rights of the organizer of the 1st CGDC and disruption of the preparation of this year's CGDC event. Therefore, CGPA, as one of the organizers of the CGDC, will do its best to protect its intellectual property rights in CGDC and related activities, and, when necessary, will resort to law as this is also relevant to the rights and interests of all game developers in China.

On account of what UBM has done with the intellectual property of CGDC, the CGPA would like to call on our member companies, in particular those that hold the posts of vice chairman and executive director, not to participate in any form in the preparation or organization of the "GDC-China 2009" or promise to attend any of its events or conferences' activities, as any of such participation will assist in the infringement upon the intellectual property rights of CGDC and in turn be detrimental to the interests of the whole China game industry.

Member companies who have questions may consult with the Organizing Committee of CGDC through Ms. Nan Zheng (8610-82603101) and Mr. Yunpeng Tan (8610-51659355-ext 19).
