According to the data published on the website of China National Intellectual Property Administration, last year, Ningbo applied for 104 13 patents, breaking through 10000 for the first time, with a year-on-year increase of 34%. Among them, the number of invention patent applications exceeded 1000 for the first time, reaching115, a substantial increase of 85.5% year-on-year, and the proportion of invention patent applications in the total application also exceeded 10% for the first time, reaching10.7. In 2001, 6,056 patents were granted, up by 5 1.9% year-on-year, among which 200 patents were granted for inventions, up by 27.4% year-on-year, indicating that Ningbo's independent innovation consciousness and innovation ability have been greatly improved.
The analysis shows that the substantial increase in the number of patent applications and authorizations in Ningbo, especially the rapid increase in the number of invention patents, is inseparable from Ningbo's efforts to promote the construction of independent innovation capabilities and accelerate the establishment of an innovation system with enterprises as the main body. The city's science and technology conference held in 2004 proposed that the number of patents granted should reach 6000 by 2008, which has been realized two years ahead of schedule. The city-wide innovation conference held at the beginning of last year created a good atmosphere for independent innovation and further strengthened the intellectual property awareness of enterprises. Government departments also actively take effective measures to speed up the implementation of the patent strategy. The amount of funding for obtaining invention patents soared from 6,000 yuan to 6,543.8+0.2 million yuan. Funding for patent demonstration enterprises and pilot enterprises has also increased substantially. At the same time, the training on the application of intellectual property rights to enterprises, especially those in charge of enterprises and technology, has been strengthened, and the action of intellectual property rights protection has been carried out in depth, which has improved the intellectual property awareness of enterprises. Last year, when Ningbo set up a science and technology plan, applicants were required to clearly put forward intellectual property goals, and at the same time, intellectual property output requirements were put forward for the evaluation of high-tech enterprises, the acceptance of enterprise engineering centers, and scientific and technological projects, which catalyzed the enthusiasm of enterprises to apply for patents and promoted the in-depth development of independent innovation activities of enterprises and scientific research units.
