Function and significance:
1. Obtain monopoly rights. Patent owners can directly prevent corresponding competition from business rivals and achieve higher profit returns.
2. As a defensive shield. If the inventor fails to apply for a patent at the first time, competitors will get there first. At that time, all the inventor's research and development efforts will be in vain, and the inventor himself will not be able to use his own scientific research results.
3. Earn license fees. Even if there is no immediate need for a patent in the market, it is very likely that people will realize the use of the patent in the future and be willing to pay royalties. Xerox of the United States invented the graphical user interface but did not apply for a patent. Later, Microsoft and Apple The company uses the graphical user interface as the basis of its personal computer operating system. Preliminary estimates indicate that Xerox has lost nearly US$1 billion in license fees. On the other hand, IBM gained US$1.7 billion by transferring patents in 2001. income.
4. Conducive to scientific and correct decision-making by enterprises. Through patent analysis, companies can understand technological trends, industry trends, market trends, and new product trends, and then predict and formulate the company's near, medium, and long-term development plans, determine which products the company will develop to occupy the market, and maintain the company's leading position. , expand market share.
5. Increase the value of the enterprise.
If the company owns several valuable patents and a third party is willing to invest in the company, the company's stock price will increase significantly. In 1997, Microsoft acquired a small company with less than 6,000 users for US$425 million. The acquisition price was 40 times the industry average price based on the number of users. Microsoft was willing to pay this share price because the company held 35 Internet-based products. Key patents for delivering television content.
6. Win the big with the small and enhance the competitiveness of the enterprise. Patents are equally important to large, medium and small enterprises as well as new enterprises. In the fiercely competitive market, small enterprises can obtain patented new inventions to defeat the leading products established by large enterprises with huge advertisements.
7. Assist in developing foreign markets. As of 2013, more than 170 countries and regions in the world have established and implemented patent systems. Many foreign buyers, especially American buyers, will require local manufacturers or sellers to prove that they own the intellectual property rights of their products to protect themselves from Get involved in infringement lawsuits so that you will be willing to trade.
