RUSSIA’S POSITION IN THE GLOBAL LANDSCAPE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY DURING 2010–2015
Abstract
The article presents an analysis of the distribution of Russian patent documents with priority for patent government bodies of different countries and regions during 2010–2015. It has been demonstrated that viable patent solutions of Russian residents are concentrated in a limited number of countries (technological leaders in the world) and it would be most likely be challenging for the Russian high technological companies to conquer these markets. It is noted that only 3.2% of patent documents of Russian residents have been released outside ofRussiaduring 2010–2012. The least populated is the group of patent communities: almost 97% of the patents released outside ofRussiaare submitted to one international patent government body. The article presents results of a comparative analysis of distributed patent applications for inventions in 35 fields of engineering, submitted across the world in the period between 1995 and 2013 as well as distributed patent applications for inventions of a WIPO system in 35 fields of engineering during the period 2010–2014. A suggestion is made that such areas of engineering as audio-visual technologies, transport technologies, semiconductor technologies and telecommunications technologies will gradually lose their power as generators of new industries to other fields of engineering including: «micro structural and nano technologies», «medical technologies», «pharmaceutical technologies», «biotechnologies», «informational management technologies» and «control technologies». It is suggested that particularly these fields of engineering will be considered as the priority for scientific research development of Russiain the efforts to re-industrialise and to create new industries in Russia.
