According to foreign media reports, according to foreign media reports, the data released by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) on Monday showed that under the impetus of China and other middle-income countries, the number of international patent applications increased by 10% to 18,190 cases in 2011. A new record high.
WIPO Director-General Francis Gurry said: "While universal uncertainty affects the global economy, the innovation and innovation activities of global companies have not been interrupted."
The figures show that although patent applications from the United States, Japan, and Germany accounted for 58% of the global total last year, the fastest-growing country is China, with patent applications growing 33.4% from 2010.
China’s second-largest telecommunications equipment maker, ZTE, submitted 2,826 international patent applications last year, which surpassed 2,463 of Japan’s Panasonic Corporation and ranked first in the world. Huawei applied for 1,831 patents and ranked third. Qualcomm fell from third place in 2010 to sixth place.
Gurry said that this phenomenon shows that global innovation activities are shifting from North America and Europe to Asia. Last year, patent applications from Asia accounted for 39% of global patent applications, and North America and Europe accounted for 28.3% and 13.9%, respectively.
