Eight years is a long time in the world of patents. When we last published what we called the patent power score card, in 2017, it was a different technological and social landscape: Google had just presented a Patent application in the transformer architectureA transcendental advance that generated the generative revolution of AI. China was just beginning to produce quality and affordable Electric vehicles on scale. And Covid pandemia was not on anyone’s dance card.
Eight years is also a long time in the world of magazines, where we play regularly with formats for articles and infographics. Now we have more online readers than in a print, so our art team is taking advantage of the advances in the interactive design software to make complex data sets exhausted at a glance, whether it is on your phone or turning the magazine pages.
The return of the scorecar in this issue follows the return of last month of the data, which was executed as our subsequent page for several years; He is curated by a different editor every month and edited by the editorial director for the development of content Glenn Zorpette.
When we set out to recast the punctuation box for this decade, we seek to achieve adequate balance between integrity and clarity, especially on the screen of a mobile phone. As our digital product designer Erik Vrielink, assistant editor Gwendolyn Rak and community manager Kohava Mendelsohn explained to me, they wanted something that was striking when avoiding information overload. The solution to which they reached, a dynamic visualization of solar outbreak, readers comprise the essential conclusions to look at impression, while the digital version allows readers to immerse themselves as deeply as they want in the data.
Work with a data mining company focused on SCI-TECH 1790 AnalysisWith which we associate in the original patent power score, the team prioritized three metric or key features: the power of the patent pipe (which goes beyond the mere amount to evaluate the quality and impact), the number of patents and the country where the companies are located. This last characteristic has become increasingly significant as geopolitical tensions remodel the global technological panorama. As the co -founders of 1590 Analytics Anthony Breitzman and Patrick Thomas point out, in the coming years they could be particularly interesting as organizations adjust their patent strategies in response to changing access to the market.
Some trends jump immediately. In consumer electronics, Apple The power of the pipe dominates despite having a patent portfolio a third of the size of Samsung’s—A testimony of the Cupertino company approach in high -impact innovations. The aerospace sector has seen a dramatic consolidation, with RTX (previously Raytheon Technologies) now covers multiple subsidiaries that appear separately in our scorecar.
And in the university ranking, Harvest He has taken the first place of traditional technological powers such as MIT and Stanford, driven by patents that are often cited as previous art in other recent patents. And then there are the subtle changes that become evident only when you deepen the data. The emergence of Sel (semiconductor energy laboratory) Over TSMC (Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.) In the design of semiconductors, despite having much less patents, it suggests that true innovation is not just about presenting patents, it is about creating technologies that others build.
Looking towards the future, the real test will be how these patent portfolios translate into real products and services. Patents are promises of innovation; The punctuation box helps us see which companies are doing those promises and R&D investments to make them. As we enter an era in which technological leadership increasingly determines economic and strategic power, understanding these patterns is more crucial than ever.
