Companies dominate all types of patentees with 67.8% in rate of patent use. The report also counted the patent commercialization rate of China, which stood at 46.0% in 2016. Larger companies also tend to have a more potent desire to use their patents, or in other words, their patents might be easier to be put into use, according to a principal of IP Development and Research Center (IPDRC) under the State Intellectual Property Office (SIPO), who engaged in the edition of the report. “In general, the bigger the company, the higher the patent use rate. In terms of types of patents, the use rates of micro companies’ valid invention patent, utility model and design are between 50% and 60%, all lower than those of companies of larger size.”Indeed, strength in use and commercialization of patents is an important parameter in determining patents’ value. This means as much to Gao Haichun, General Manager of China Otsuka Pharmaceutical Company, as to anybody. “In recent years, Otsuka’s invention filing (out of all types of patents) percentage and commercialization rate of core patents both surpassed 60% through our efforts in further optimizing patent structure. The annual sales revenue of our company’s patent-reliant product has increased by one third year on year.”
