On April 25, the National Intellectual Property Administration (NIPA) held an Open Day. 15 branch events took place in 11 cities. The Trademark Office invited over 50 reps from innovators, businesses, students, and the media.

The theme was "Intellectual Property and AI." A video about this played during a live link with the main event. They also showed how the DeepSeek R1 big model helps with trademark checks.

There were fun activities: a "Trademark Quiz," stamp collecting on postcards, and cool exhibits like an old "White Rabbit" trademark copy from the Song Dynasty and 3D trademarks of Bing Dwen Dwen. People toured offices and halls too.

Everyone said the event made them care more about protecting IP and want to help its development.
