The industry patent insurance service platform, five Foshan lighting companies and the People's Insurance Company signed a letter of intent for patent insurance. According to the relevant person in charge of the Foshan Lighting and Lighting Association, patent insurance is a new type of commercial insurance introduced after the introduction of insurance business into intellectual property protection. The insured person insures the insurance company with the patent granted as the target, and the insured person encounters infringement during the insurance period. In behavior, the insurance company will compensate the insurer for the investigation expenses and lawyer fees incurred in the process of patent protection in accordance with the contract.

In addition, in order to encourage more lighting companies to participate in patent insurance, Foshan Lighting Association will also insure the locally authorized lighting invention patents in Foshan in 2016 and 2017, and strive for zero-cost insurance for enterprises.
