In the 2023 Global Innovation Index Report released by the World Intellectual Property Organization, China has 24 of the world's top 100 science and technology clusters, ranking first in the world for the first time. The development of intellectual property has been stable and improved, laying a solid foundation for cultivating and developing new quality productivity.
Strengthen protection and encourage innovation
Innovation can give birth to new industries, new models and new driving forces, and is the core element of developing new quality productivity. Tao Kaiyuan, Vice President of the Supreme People's Court, believes that intellectual property rights are directly related to the landing of innovation and are most closely related. To protect intellectual property is to protect innovation, and to serve and accelerate the development of new quality productivity.
In 2023, China will approve 4.383 million registered trademarks, register 11000 integrated circuit layout designs, and register 6428000 works and 2.495 million computer software copyrights, up 42.3% and 36.0% year on year respectively. The continuous emergence of innovative achievements is inseparable from China's strong support in terms of review and authorization, legal protection, achievements transformation, service guarantee, etc.
Hu Wenhui, Deputy Director of the State Intellectual Property Office, introduced that Hefei has strengthened the protection of the original innovative achievements of the comprehensive national science center, and promoted more scientific research achievements to the application scene. Tianjin Binhai New Area actively serves strategic science and technology entities such as the National Supercomputing Center and Haihe Laboratory, and supports key core technology research with the precise intellectual property protection model of "order+expert". Hangzhou set up a digital economy intellectual property protection center to carry out the reform of data intellectual property protection system.
It is reported that up to now, the first 10 national intellectual property protection demonstration zones have achieved initial results, and the second 15 have been selected. There are 112 national intellectual property protection centers and rapid rights protection centers. In 2023, 44000 cases of patent and trademark violations will be investigated and handled, and 68000 administrative cases of patent infringement disputes will be handled. While encouraging innovation, the protection work provides a stable and predictable good environment for intellectual property rights to become real gold and silver.
Escort enterprises to "go global"
Intellectual property is the core element of enterprises' international competitiveness, and increasingly becomes the focus of international competition. In recent years, the State Intellectual Property Office has taken effective measures to help Chinese enterprises safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of overseas intellectual property.
It is reported that the State Intellectual Property Office, together with the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, has set up the National Overseas Intellectual Property Dispute Response and Guidance Center, laid out and built 43 local sub centers in 27 provinces (regions, cities), and set up work guidance stations in countries and regions with intensive trade exchanges to provide professional and efficient overseas rights protection guidance services for enterprises. In 2023 alone, it guided 1706 enterprises, helped enterprises recover economic losses of 6.89 billion yuan, and helped enterprises reduce rights protection costs of 390 million yuan. At the same time, the State Intellectual Property Office has continuously strengthened the collection and supply of overseas intellectual property information, and regularly released intellectual property laws and regulations and risk warning information of key countries and regions using the "Smart Southern Needle" network platform to help enterprises understand the relevant situation in a timely manner.
