🌐 The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) just dropped some major Lunar New Year vibes! Director General Daren Tang celebrated China’s innovation superpowers in a festive shoutout to CGTN audiences, blending ancient symbolism with modern tech dreams.
Highlighting the Year of the Snake 🐍 – a sign linked to wisdom, transformation, and knowledge in Chinese culture – Tang called these traits 'essential fuel' for today’s global innovation race. He gave a loud 🔔 to Chinese innovators for their knack at mixing 5,000 years of cultural heritage with cutting-edge ideas: 'From AI to green tech, China’s shaping tomorrow’s playbook.'
💡 Fun fact: Did you know China filed over 1.5 million patents in 2023 alone? Tang’s message hints this is just the start. His New Year wish? A world where 'every idea sparks positive change' – and TBH, we’re here for it.
