(22)China has become the first country to receive more than 1 million patent applications in a year—a record, the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) said, reflected “extraordinary” levels of innovation in the world’s most populous nation. “The Chinese are making innovation a central part of their economic strategy,” Francis Gurry, director-general of the UN agency, said at a briefing in Geneva.
While sceptics have long argued that China’s patent figures are skewed by state-driven filing targets, intellectual property lawyers argue they also reflect the country’s growing inventiveness. (23)“The Chinese government still wants people to file patents and they get explicit and implicit rewards for doing so,” said Erick Robinson, a Beijing-based patent lawyer. “But the quality of patents in China is improving at a breathtaking speed.”
(24)According to WIPO figures, China’s patent office received 1,101,864 applications in 2015 from both domestic and foreign filers, accounting for almost 40% of the global total and more than the next three countries—the US, Japan and Korea—combined. “Once again we see an increasing dominance by Asia as the origin of filing activity for intellectual property,” Mr Gurry added, noting that Asian countries had received more than 60% of total patent filings last year. “Chinese companies are also more aware of the importance of protecting their IP,” said Zhang Xuemei. (25)Mr Robinson cited WeChat, the social media platform developed by Internet group Tencent, as an example of Chinese innovation at its best.
