First of all, enterprises should apply for and obtain patent rights in time according to the relevant provisions of the patent law. If the patent right cannot be automatically obtained, the state shall apply first. Enterprises must fulfill the patent application procedures stipulated in the Patent Law and submit the necessary application documents to the patent administration department of the State Council in writing. After the legal examination and approval procedures, the patent administrative department of the State Council will grant the patent right to the qualified patents. Enterprises should pay special attention to the application for patent right. When an enterprise develops a new product or technology, if it is expected that the new product or technology will bring considerable economic benefits to itself, and the product or technology is easy to be counterfeited, it should apply for a patent before producing the product or the product directly obtained from the technology, instead of putting the product on the market before applying for a patent in order to pursue short-term market benefits. Novelty is one of the necessary conditions for obtaining patent right. Therefore, if you apply for a patent after the product is put on the market, it will be rejected by the state patent administration department because of its loss of novelty; Even if the patent right is granted after examination, any other unit or individual may apply to declare the patent invalid according to the provisions of Article 45 of the Patent Law, resulting in the patent not being effectively protected. It can be seen that enterprises can effectively protect their patent rights from infringement only if they apply for patent rights in time and get authorization. Secondly, the enterprise should establish a special patent management system or institution, equipped with professionals to manage patent rights. According to Article 42 of China's Patent Law, the protection period of the invention patent right is 20 years, and the protection period of the utility model patent right and the design patent right is 10 years, counting from the date of application. After an enterprise obtains a patent right according to law, during the period of patent protection, it shall, in accordance with the provisions of Article 43 of the Patent Law and Article 98 of the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of the Patent Law, start to pay the annual fee in the year when the patent right is granted, and the annual fee thereafter shall be paid before the expiration of the previous year. If the patentee fails to pay or fails to pay in full, the patent administration department of the State Council shall notify the patentee to pay the annual fee within 6 months from the date of expiration, and pay the late fee at the same time; The amount of the late payment fee is calculated by adding 5% of the full annual fee of the current year for every 1 month that exceeds the prescribed payment time; If it is not paid at the expiration of the time limit, the patent right shall be terminated from the date when the annual fee should be paid. Therefore, if the enterprise fails to pay the annual fee as required, the patent right will be terminated before the expiration of the protection period. In addition, the patent management institutions established by enterprises should also be responsible for the licensing of patents, the transfer of patent rights and patent application rights, and entrusted development contracts related to patent rights, so as to effectively protect enterprise patent rights in these aspects and give full play to the role of patent rights in enterprise management. It is particularly important to note that when an enterprise signs an entrusted development contract with another party as the entrusting party, it should clearly stipulate that the patent application right and patent right belong to the enterprise, otherwise, in the absence of agreement or unclear agreement, the patent application right and patent right should belong to the entrusted party. Therefore, it is necessary for enterprises to manage patent rights by special personnel. Thirdly, enterprises should pay attention to avoid the loss of patented talents from infringing on their patented technology. The core competitiveness of modern enterprises is often determined by the talents owned by enterprises, and the loss of secret-related talents, especially patent talents, is directly related to the survival and development of enterprises. With the advent of the era of knowledge economy, talents who master the most precious knowledge capital are increasingly becoming valuable resources for modern enterprises to enhance their competitiveness and accelerate their development. In today's increasingly frequent flow of talents, especially after China's entry into WTO, the competition for talents is more intense. How to reduce the technical loss brought by brain drain to enterprises is indeed a big problem faced by enterprise managers. The world-famous Intel company once had such a lesson. At the beginning of the company's business, the first generation microprocessor 8080 designed by its talented designer Fagan was successful, which created a huge market for the company. But something unexpected happened. Fagan left the company at a critical moment, took away two important technical talents, started a new business, reorganized a new company, introduced new products more advanced than 8080, and stole most of Intel's market. This blow almost destroyed Intel, and it was not until several years later that Intel re-emerged. Such a lesson is painful. Patent inventors and designers are often people who master the core technology of enterprises, and the loss of such talents often leads to the leakage of the core technology on which enterprises depend. Once this happens, the loss to the enterprise will be huge, especially when these core technicians quit to rival enterprises or start a new stove, the enterprise will face severe competitive pressure. Therefore, enterprises should strengthen the human resource management of core technicians and gradually establish a human resource management system that conforms to the market economy. For example, enterprises establish an incentive mechanism for core technical talents; Establish a work breakdown mechanism and strengthen the classified management of core technical personnel. For a research project that needs to be completed by a work team-project team (or research team), even if the technicians quit to another enterprise, it will be difficult to pose a substantial threat to the core technology of the enterprise because of the lack of such a work team; Strengthen the risk guarantee mechanism for the loss of core technical personnel. Enterprises can sign restrictive measures such as "non-competition agreement" and "confidentiality agreement" with core technicians in advance, requiring core technicians not to engage in competitive work with enterprises for a period of time after leaving the enterprise, and have the obligation to keep business secrets and technical secrets for the enterprise, and at the same time give corresponding material compensation. These measures can prevent the loss of core technical personnel in enterprises to some extent, thus protecting the patent rights of enterprises. Finally, enterprises should pay attention to the relief measures that should be taken after patent rights are infringed. Due to the technical difficulty of patent protection, a large amount of evidence is easily lost or difficult to obtain. In practice, enterprises often give up the protection of their own patents for fear of trouble or other reasons, which makes their losses infinitely expand. In fact, at present, China's laws are increasingly protecting patent rights. For example, administrative protection of patent rights includes customs protection and judicial protection of patent rights. In addition, in terms of judicial protection of patent rights, according to Article 61 of China's Patent Law, if an enterprise has evidence to prove that others are committing or about to commit acts infringing its patent rights, if it does not stop them in time, it will cause irreparable damage to its legitimate rights and interests, and it may apply to the people's court for measures to order it to stop relevant acts and preserve its property before bringing a lawsuit. Therefore, as long as enterprises strengthen their awareness of patent protection, pay attention to market trends, collect evidence of infringement in time, and reasonably determine the amount of compensation demanded by infringers, they can get patent infringement compensation more easily. Moreover, the enterprise's own right consciousness and rights protection behavior will also play a warning role to the intentional infringer, making him realize the price that should be paid for infringing others' patent rights and flinch from infringement. To sum up, the enterprise patent strategy known as "the lifeline and amulet of enterprise development" is the most important means to gain competitive advantage in the market environment, and the protection of enterprise patent rights is particularly important in the patent strategy.
