What are the precautions for importing patented technology?

The first is the feasibility evaluation in the introduction of patented technology. The technical scheme obtained by enterprises through patent licensing or transfer may not have great market value. Even a mature technical scheme needs to be considered and measured in many aspects. Therefore, before deciding to import, we should evaluate the patented technology, including technical maturity, economic benefits, market prospects and patent stability.

The second is to acquire tacit knowledge (technical secrets). When applying for a patent, the original patentee often hides many technical secrets and does not disclose them in the patent. In this case, although the licensee or transferee has legally obtained the ownership or use right of the patent, it can't achieve the same technical effect as the original technology owner and can't really own the technology. Enterprises should pay attention to acquiring such tacit knowledge.

Third, attach importance to the adaptability of technology introduction to the conditions of enterprises. The introduction of patented technology by enterprises should be adapted to their own technical strength, economic strength and enterprise nature.

Fourth, pay attention to the digestion, absorption and innovation of technology introduction. When introducing technology, we should focus on the leap of technological development, and the technology should be advanced and have certain development potential; Enterprises should pay attention to the digestion, absorption and re-innovation of technology, and can enhance their independent innovation ability through technology introduction; In addition, special attention should be paid to intellectual property issues in the process of introduction, digestion, absorption and re-innovation.
