The competition among high-tech companies in the future will be a competition for human resource, knowledge, and a competition of transforming from possessing tangible property to owning intellectual property. Currently, high-tech companies around the world are moving their manufacturing to China, an emerging huge market for product''s supply and demand, making China a highly competitive trading place; to those Chinese and Taiwanese high-tech industries, it is both an opportunity and a challenge. How would these companies be able to grab the opportunity and face the challenge, win at the home front the first battle in the world economic context, stand on Taiwan and China to participate the world competition, and to gain the final victory. It all hinges upon and the focus should be on improving their competitiveness. The competitiveness comes from human resource, leading innovative technology, cumulative intellectual property right and creativeness. A high-tech company has to first establish itself in the innovation of intellectual property right so as to improve its competitiveness, and thereby actively involves in the world economic activity; uses global capital, technology, market, human resource, and land; and only by doing so, can it face the upcoming global competition and digital era. Based on the foregoing, managing intellectual property of a high-tech company needs also to be strategically standing within China and Taiwan, such that it may well fit into tangible property environment as well as global industrial structure, and will be ready for the intellectual and global economy. Hence, there has to be an overall review of the legislative, administrative, and judicial environment relating to the creating and management of the intellectual capital; the related professional services and their operational mechanism need to be established as well. Accordingly, while wasting no time fully taking advantage of the knowledge, experience, and patent information built up by the industrialized nations, and dedicating to investing in the creating and managing the intellectual capital, a high-tech company should, at the same time, extend the intellectual property right and its commercial benefit from domestic to global market, and be able to win the first battle under the global competition and therefore, forever thrive.
