By September of 20021year, the total value of global big data industry patents was $39.248 billion. Among them, the number of big data patent applications below $30,000 is the largest, with179,200; Followed by $300,000-$300,000 big data patents, the total number of patent applications is around 70,000. The number of big data patent applications exceeding $3 million is the least, only 25 15.
Statistical caliber: make statistics according to the duplication elimination rule of a patent representative in each simple family, and select any patent with patent value in the same family to display.
