Requirements for intellectual property in high-tech enterprise applications
According to the "Guidelines for the Management of High-tech Enterprise Recognition", a scoring system is implemented in the evaluation of high-tech enterprises. , among which core independent intellectual property rights are the primary indicator, accounting for up to 30 points. An invention patent or six other intellectual property rights (such as six utility model patents) can obtain Grade A (i.e. 24-30 points), while an enterprise can only meet the standard with a total score of more than 70 points (not including 70 points). It can be seen that the number of core independent intellectual property rights of an enterprise has a decisive impact on the enterprise's application for high-tech enterprises. Whether or not it has independent intellectual property rights is a "one-vote veto" in the identification of high-tech enterprises. Even if an enterprise has certain innovation capabilities, high product quality, and is even at the leading level in the same industry, due to the lack of independent intellectual property rights, it cannot be determined with one vote. There is no chance to enter the ranks of high-tech enterprises.
(1) Types of core independent intellectual property rights
In the recognition of high-tech enterprises, the intellectual property rights that are recognized and can be scored include: inventions, utility models, and non-simple changes to product patterns. and shape designs (mainly refers to: designs obtained through the research and development process using scientific and engineering technology methods), software copyrights, exclusive rights to integrated circuit layout designs, and new plant varieties. The above types of intellectual property rights must be applied for and registered in China in order to be recognized in the high-tech enterprise certification.
(2) How to own core independent intellectual property rights
Enterprises registered in China (excluding Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan), through independent research and development, transfer in the past three years It has independent intellectual property rights on the core technologies of its main products (services) through various means, such as donations, mergers and acquisitions, or through exclusive global licensing for more than 5 years.
Independent research and development means that the reporting enterprise obtains ownership of the above types of intellectual property rights through application and registration.
For transfers, donations, mergers and acquisitions, etc., you need to go to the corresponding application registration management department to handle the change procedures for transfer of rights. Namely
Patents: For changes in patent rights, the acceptance agency is the Patent Office of the State Intellectual Property Office;
Integrated circuit layout design: For changes in exclusive rights, the acceptance agency is the National Intellectual Property Office Bureau;
Software Copyright: To handle changes in copyright, the accepting agency is the China Copyright Protection Center (Software Registration Center);
New plant varieties: To handle changes in variety rights, the accepting agency is the Ministry of Agriculture , Ministry of Forestry (Office for the Protection of New Plant Varieties).
If an enterprise has zero intellectual property rights or the patentee is the enterprise's legal representative or other individual, it needs to obtain an exclusive license to implement the patent for more than five years and obtain a registration certificate. This method can also calculate the score for high-tech enterprise certification based on quantity.
