An Analysis of Technological Competition and Cooperation between China and Singapore from the Perspective of Patents
Abstract
[Purpose/Significance] As an important country along the "One Belt and One Road" routes, Singapore is an important trading partner of China. By comparing and analyzing the valid invention patents of China and Singapore in each other's country, we can discover the technology competition and cooperation situation between China and Singapore, which provides reference for the relevant patentees of the two countries to carry out technological cooperation. [Method/Process] We adopt the method of comparative analysis to explain the technological structure and industrial advantages of China and Singapore in each other's countries, and explore the overall situation of technological competition and cooperation between the two countries. The citation analysis method is used to analyze the citing coupling relationships between Singapore's patents in China and Chinese patents, exploring the competition and cooperation relationships between the two countries in specific technologies in the Chinese market. [Results/Conclusions] Through comparative analysis, it is found that the distribution of patents between China and Singapore in each other's countries is closely related to the relationship between the two countries and the development of domestic industries. The two countries have highly overlapping patent technologies in each other's market layout, which presents strong technical competition on the whole. Through the exploration of the patent citation coupling relationships between China and Singapore, it is found that competition and cooperation coexist in specific technologies.
