What is the purpose of buying a patent? How to make good use of patents? With multinational companies frequently launching patent wars, China enterprises will also face the pressure of upgrading their patent reserves in a short time. Patent purchase and acquisition based on patent ownership will increasingly become the choice for China enterprises to cope with the imminent patent war. Patent is a monopoly right endowed by law, so owning a patent means exclusivity. In order to stop the market offensive of competitors, enterprises will consider acquiring a number of core patents. What is the specific purpose of buying a patent? The purpose of purchasing a patent is roughly as follows: to stop competitors, defend themselves, collect licensing fees, show their strength, and protect their products or methods from being infringed by others; Sticking the patent number on the product is a very good advertising function, and having patent autonomy is an important condition for authenticating enterprise qualifications. For example, a high-tech enterprise applying for a patent is also an affirmation of the inventor's knowledge, which is conducive to his future evaluation of professional titles. In technology research and development, we can't make a major breakthrough in a very short time; In time, we don't have enough margin for research and development and patent application; Empirically, it is impossible for us to master complicated foreign patent laws in a short time. In order to break through the patent iron curtain of product export, China enterprises can only arrange patents in exporting countries, and the most economical and time-saving method is patent acquisition. Another purpose is to acquire patents to obtain patent license fees. This kind of acquisition is mainly carried out by professional patent agencies. General productive enterprises will not buy patents for licensing fees, because patent litigation is often the only way to collect licensing fees, and the litigation cost is staggering. If an enterprise owns several patents, it is the embodiment of its powerful strength, an intangible asset and intangible publicity. Enterprises with independent intellectual property rights are not only powerful enterprises that consumers desire, but also the main target groups supported by various government policies. 2 1 century is the era of knowledge economy, and buying patents is the competition of the future world and the competition of intellectual property rights.
