When did you put forward the concept of high-value patent?

In fact, the concept of high-value patent was not put forward in recent years. As early as 1989, China National Intellectual Property Administration began to set up the China Patent Award, with the purpose of selecting high-quality excellent patents (actually equivalent to high-value rights). It has not only been selected for 20 consecutive times, but also specially formulated the "China Patent Award Evaluation Method", which shows that high-value patents have a long history.

However, the concept of high-value patents has become more and more important in recent years, and there are other reasons. The legislation of intellectual property protection system in China is late, and the awareness of intellectual property rights of domestic enterprises is still very weak. Therefore, increasing the number of patent applications, popularizing the intellectual property knowledge of enterprises, and then improving the quality of patent applications may be the macro-control at the national strategic level. At present, the number of patent applications in China ranks first in the world for seven consecutive years, so it is meaningless to pursue the number again. The development of patents in China has reached a turning point from quantitative change to qualitative change, so it is an inevitable and natural process for high-value patents to become hot spots.
