Eight years is a long time in the patent world. When we last published that we called patent power scorecard, in 2017, it was a separate technical and social landscape – Google had just filed. Patent application on transformer architectureAn important advance that gave rise to a generic AI revolution. China was currently starting to produce quality, cheaper Electric vehicle on scaleAnd the Kovid epidemic was not on anyone’s dance card.
Eight years also have a long time in the world of magazines, where we regularly play with formats for articles and infographics. Now we have more online readers than prints, so our art team is taking advantage of progress in interactive design software to gract the complex dataset at a glance, whether you are on your phone or flipping through the magazine’s pages.
The return of the scorecard in this issue follows the return of the previous month, which lasted as our back page for many years; It is cured by a separate editor every month and the material is edited by the editorial director for Glenn Zorpet.
As we are ready to resume the scorecard for this decade, we demanded to attack the correct balance especially on the mobile-phone screen, understanding and clarity. As our digital product designer Eric Vylink, Assistant Editor Guindolin Rak, and Community Manager Kohwa Mendelsohan explained to me, they wanted something that would hold the eye while avoiding information overload. The solution they arrived at a dynamic sunburst visualization – readers caught the required takeaways at the print, while the digital version allows readers to dive as deep as you want in the data.
Working with the company 1790 AnalyticsWhich we participated on the original patent power scorecard, the team preferred three major matrix or characteristics: patent pipeline power (which is just beyond the quantity to assess quality and impact), the number of patents and the country where companies are based. This final feature has become increasingly important because geo -political stresses reopen the global technology landscape. 1790 Analytics Cofounders Anthony Breightzman and Patrick Thomas Note, can be particularly interesting in the next few years as organizations adjust their patent strategies in response to changing market access.
Some trends jump immediately. In consumer electronics, Apple The pipeline dominates the power despite the one -third size of the patent portfolio Samsung-One will to focus the focus of the cupertino company on high impact innovations. Aerospace sector has seen dramatic consolidation, along with RTX (Earlier, Retheon Technologies) is now incorporating several subsidiaries that appear separately on our scorecard.
And in university ranking, Harvard The top spot from traditional tech powerhouse such as MIT and Stanford is seized, operated by patents, which are often quoted as pre -art in other recent patents. And then there are subtle changes that become clear only when you excavate the data deeply. rise of Semiconductor Energy Laboratory) Despite being less patent from TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company) in semiconductor design, again suggests that True Innovation is not only about filing patents – it is about making technologies that build others.
Looking forward, the actual test will be how these patent portfolio translates into actual products and services. There are promises of patent innovation; The scorecard helps us see what companies are doing for those promises and R&D investment so that they can be felt. As we enter an era when technical leadership rapidly determines economic and strategic power, it is more important to understand these patterns than ever.
