How do you think BOE has applied for more than 25,000 patents related to organic light-emitting diodes?

BOE has been engaged in research and development and patent layout in the field of organic light-emitting diodes for more than ten years, and has independently applied for more than 25,000 patents related to organic light-emitting diodes. These patents cover core technologies such as flexible folding, full screen, off-screen camera and pixel arrangement. In addition, BOE invested as much as126.02 million yuan in R&D in 2022, accounting for 7.06% of revenue, and accumulated more than 80,000 independent patent applications, including 28,000 related patent applications for flexible organic light-emitting diodes.

This move by BOE shows its active investment and strong strength in organic light-emitting diode technology. First of all, this shows BOE's persistence and persistence in technology research and development, and its continuous investment and layout for more than ten years have made BOE's technology accumulation in the field of organic light-emitting diodes increasingly profound. Secondly, it also shows that BOE attaches importance to intellectual property rights, and protects its own technological achievements by applying for patents independently to avoid infringement by others. Finally, it also shows BOE's determination in the global market competition. With a large number of patents, you can have enough chips to meet the challenges of competitors.

However, although BOE has a large number of patents in the field of organic light-emitting diodes, its competition in the global market is still fierce. For example, Samsung Electronics submitted 2786 patents, while LG Electronics has 24 12 patents. Therefore, BOE still faces certain challenges in the development of organic light-emitting diodes.
