The headquarters of CreatorIP is located in Gusu District, Suzhou, with branch offices in Shanghai, Zhangjiagang, Changshu, Taicang and Wujiang, and an investment in Suzhou Yingbo Road Technology Consulting Co., Ltd. For over thirty years since its inception, CreatorIP has remained dedicated to fostering and safeguarding innovation.

The composition of intellectual property professionals is well-structured and robust, over 50% of them graduating from 211/985/Double First-Class universities, predominantly holding master degrees, and two members having doctoral degrees. Their expertise is in a range of industries including mechanical engineering, biomedicine, chemistry, materials science, physics, electronics, and communications.
