As long as according to the number of projects of each technology development unit, each unit is required to submit a specified number of patents within a specified time.
After a certain number of patents, the patent awareness of each unit naturally forms and it is easier to popularize.
At the same time, incentives are indispensable, and patent awards can be. In the case that it is difficult to realize patent award in a short time, patent recognition, or to some extent, linked to performance appraisal, is also an incentive. As long as the leaders attach importance to it, the incentive methods can be diversified. The key is to let employees establish patent awareness.
In addition, appropriate patent technology training.
