Patent change dividends: In the first half of the year, the patent trademark pledged financing amount exceeded 162.6 billion yuan

The 21st Century Economic Herald reported that Wang Feng reported that my country's digital economy was booming, which can be seen from the creation and reserve data of intellectual property in related fields.

At the press conference of the National New Office on July 12, Hu Wenhui, deputy director of the State Intellectual Property Office, introduced that the enhancement of patent reserves in the emerging technology field has supported the digital transformation of the economy and society, and also enhanced the health and well -being of the people.

As of the end of 2021, the valid invention patents of the core industry of my country's digital economy reached 977,000, which was 2.8 times that of 2016, accounting for 35.2%of the domestic effective invention patent.

As of the end of June 2022, the top three technical fields in the number of valid invention patents in my country were computer technology, measurement and digital communication, respectively, accounting for 9.4%, 7.6%, and 6.8%of the total.

Since the epidemic, small and micro enterprises have been greatly impacted. In order to help the epidemic affected by the restarting production of catering, cultural tourism and other industries, the State Intellectual Property Office has conducted in -depth special activities such as trademark pledge financing.

In the first half of this year, the amount of pledge financing of the national patent trademark was 162.65 billion yuan, a year -on -year increase of 51.5%. The 21st Century Economic Herald reporters combed and found that this is the third consecutive year of intellectual property pledge financing.

Statistics related to intellectual property related work in the first half of the year show that under the influence of economic downturn and epidemic, on the one hand, intellectual property creation and protection continue to lead economic growth and scientific and technological innovation. Stable and progressive and quality improvement.

The core technology of digital economy is well developed

Intellectual property is a barometer for scientific and technological innovation and economic development.

Hu Wenhui introduced at the press conference that in the first half of the year, my country ’s invention patent authorized 393,000; as of the end of June 2022, my country's invention patent effectiveness was 3.906 million, a year -on -year increase of 17.5%.

In the first half of the year, my country ’s trademark registration was 3.674 million; as of the end of June 2022, my country’ s effective registered trademarks were 40.545 million, a year -on -year increase of 20.9%.

It can be found that the two main intellectual property rights of patents and trademarks have maintained steady growth.

Domestic enterprises are innovative and strong. As of the end of June 2022, my country has a valid invention patent of 325,000, an increase of 20.3%year -on -year; the valid invention patent is 2.107 million, a year -on -year increase of 22.0%.

Among them, high -tech enterprises and specialized new "little giants" enterprises have 155,000 companies, with 1.334 million valid invention patents, an increase of 23.4%year -on -year, accounting for 47.8%of domestic enterprises, which generates 63.3%of the effective invention patent of domestic enterprises. Maintain a strong vitality of innovation.

Hu Wenhui introduced that in the first half of the year, affected by factors such as the epidemic, the application of intellectual property rights such as domestic patents, trademarks, and integrated circuit design showed a downward trend, and the overall stable.

The "Fourteenth Five -Year Plan" outline proposes to create a new advantage in the digital economy and cultivate emerging digital industries such as artificial intelligence, big data, blockchain, cloud computing, and network security.

Ge Shu, director of the Strategic Planning Department of the State Intellectual Property Office, introduced at the press conference that from the perspective of the overall situation of the core industry of the digital economy, as of the end of 2021, the valid invention patent of my country's digital economy core industry reached 977,000, which was 2.8 in 2016 2.8 Double, the proportion of domestic effective invention patents reached 35.2%.

From the perspective of regional distribution, the Yangtze River Delta, the Guangdong -Hong Kong -Macao Greater Bay Area and the Beijing -Tianjin -Hebei show the trend of the "three strongers". The fastest and fastest growth rate has reached 27.9%in the past five years.

According to Ge Shu, my country has also shown a good development trend in the key core technology field of the digital economy. Taking artificial intelligence as an example, in 2021, the patent of artificial intelligence invention authorized by the five major intellectual property bureaus in my country, the United States, Japan and South Korea in China,, Europe, and South Korea reached 57,000, which was 5.1 times in 2016, with an average annual increase of 38.5%.

Recently, a report issued by the German Patent and Trademark Office also showed that in 2021, in digital communication and other technical fields such as digital communication, China's patent application disclosure in Germany increased significantly compared with the previous year, and its dominant status continued to consolidate.

Fighting trademark malicious hoarding

The development of intellectual property rights such as patents has steadily advanced, and the growth rate of individual intellectual property rights has fallen, but it shows the trend of quality improvement.

In the first half of the year, my country's trademark registration was 3.674 million, less than 3.724 million in the same period last year.

The 21st Century Economic Herald reporters have sorted out and found that in recent years, my country's trademark registration has increased strongly. In the first half of 2019, the registration volume increased by 67.8%year -on -year, but in the first half of 2020, it increased by 25.2%. In the first half of 2021, it increased significantly again, an increase of 41.7%, until the first half of this year was negatively increased.

Some experts point out that the important reason is that the trademark review department attaches great importance to the quality of review. Hu Wenhui introduced at the press conference that in the rapid development of the economy and society, the problem of malicious registration and hoarding of trademarks had occurred.

According to reports, the malicious registration of trademarks mainly includes two situations: one is the malicious grabbing behavior of trademarks, the main is the "side brand", "hot spot", and the name of the major national engineering name, the name of the public figure, etc.; The other is the malicious trademark malicious Hard hoarding is "no need to hoard first", and a large number of trademarks that are not used for use. "Ding Zhen" and "Thunder God Mountain" have encountered malicious registration of trademarks. "In recent years, the State Intellectual Property Office has stepped up the efforts of governance, focused on special operations to combat trademark maliciously grabbing, normalize the malicious hoarding behavior of trademarks, further standardized trademark registration order, and the market environment has also been purified." Hu Wenhui said.

A indicator reflects the governance of the review department. Hu Wenhui introduced at the press conference that in 2021, the trademark registration cycle in general situations was stable at 7 months. In the first half of 2021, the average review cycle of trademark registration was stable within 4 months.

The integrated circuit design registration certificate also adjusted the previous explosive growth trend. In the first half of the year, 5,233 issues were issued, a year -on -year decrease of 2,396. The 21st Century Economic Herald reporters sorted out and found that from the first half of 2019 to the first half of 2021, the number of identification and registration of the integrated circuit design and registered permit maintained an average growth rate of 69.5%.

"The scope of intellectual property rights in the integrated circuit is very narrow. It is mainly aimed at semiconductor devices and vigorously developed chips to solve the close correlation of 'stuck neck' technology. In recent years, the increase in the number of applications for issuance has met the actual needs. Of course, the design of the integrated circuit has its own technical characteristics. It does not make the authorization conditions very strict like the invention patent. "Li Shunde, a researcher at the Institute of Law of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

"On the one hand, for the shortcomings in the field of integrated circuits in my country, we must increase support for the creation of independent intellectual property rights for the integrated circuit's cloth map; on the other hand, we must also be alert to foaming and arbitrage behavior." Dean Cong Li said first.

Intellectual property pledge loan grows high -speed growth

Intellectual property rights directly "transform" into funds are becoming increasingly smooth. Hu Wenhui introduced at the press conference that patent trademark pledge financing was enhanced. In the first half of the year, the national patent and trademark loan -financing amount was 162.65 billion yuan, an increase of 51.5%year -on -year, and benefited 9,760 enterprises, a year -on -year increase of 68.0%.

Among them, 6,951 small and medium -sized enterprises were benefited from the inclusive loans of less than 10 million yuan, accounting for 71.2%of the total number of benefits, an increase of 111.7%year -on -year. The "small and micro" of patent trademark pledge financing services was significant and inclusive enhancement.

In recent years, the scale of intellectual property pledge loans has gradually increased, and enterprises have gradually accelerated. Li Shunde told the 21st Century Business Herald reporter that "my country had explored intellectual property pledge loans as early as decades ago, but it was very difficult to start."

The 21st Century Business Herald reporters found that in the first half of 2019, the amount of intellectual property pledge loan was 58.35 billion yuan, a year -on -year increase of 2.5%. %, 51.5%.

However, there is a pain point for intellectual property pledge loans. For example, the value of intellectual property rights is difficult to evaluate, and enterprises cannot repay the loan after the loan is difficult to dispose of mortgage assets. "Even many places are promoting this work through subsidies or re -guarantee." Li Shunde said.

According to reports, Shanghai has adopted an indirect pledge model with "government funds+banks+intellectual property anti -guarantee". The enterprise uses government credit as the guarantee, and intellectual property is used as an anti -guarantee, and intellectual property rights pledged intellectual property to relevant government agencies to obtain loans from financial institutions.

"The government's actions in intellectual property pledge loans have become an important starting point for local governments to build a business environment and support the development of small and medium -sized enterprises." Li Shunde said.

In addition to patents and trademarks, more and more intellectual property rights are used for pledge loans. According to reports, in November 2021, Wuxi Hanqi Microelectronics Technology Co., Ltd. obtained a bank loan of 1.5 million yuan in banks with a "integrated circuit design design exclusive right". There is a pledge loan. In addition, copyrights are increasingly used for pledge loans.

"The copyright industry has gradually grown, and the proportion of GDP is getting higher and higher, but many cultural enterprises lack funds. Now, the copyright value of some film and television works and online games is extremely high. If it is scientifically evaluated for its value, it will become very Important financing methods. "Cong Li first told the 21st Century Business Herald.

With the progress of science and technology, intellectual property pledge financing has more possibilities. "For example, the NFT of the application blockchain technology integrates the copyright attributes of the work and the property attributes of the artwork. The two are divided into different legal categories. Now the boundaries are broken, and the investment and financing methods of digital artworks can be further explored. Of course, the legal risks are also a new topic that follows, and relevant rules need to be improved. "Cong Lixian said.

Hu Wenhui introduced at the press conference that in order to promote the stable and healthy development of the economy, the State Intellectual Property Office accelerated the realization of the value of intellectual property. Continue to carry out intellectual property pledge financing to enter the park to enter the park to benefit enterprises, make full use of inclusive financial policies, and increase financing support for small, medium and micro enterprises.
