The number of invention patents owned by ten thousand people in Jiangsu has maintained the first place in the country for 6 consecutive years

On April 20, the Jiangsu branch of the National Intellectual Property Publicity Week was held in Nanjing, and the white paper "Development and Protection of Intellectual Property Rights in Jiangsu Province in 2021" was released
.
Last year, the number of invention patents owned by 10,000 people in Jiangsu reached 41.
17, ranking first in the country for six consecutive years.
The number of high-value invention patents per 10,000 population was 13.
99, which was 1.
87 times the national average
.
While the quantity and quality of patents are on the rise, how to revitalize patent resources and "add wings" to scientific and technological innovation? Jiangsu government, industry, academia and research circles are working together to explore new paths
.

Achievement auction hits record high, patent becomes "dividend"

"No matter how many patents are created, the key is to use them
.
While creating high-value patents, colleges and universities must also make efficient use of them
.
" said Jiang Dong, Dean of the Research Institute of Nanjing Agricultural University, and the team of Professor Li Chunbao of the school recently The latest achievements in the rapid detection technology of meat quality were successfully transferred to Suzhou Niumai Analytical Instrument Co.
, Ltd.
with a total contract value of 4 million yuan
.
Through this technology transfer, the application of low-field nuclear magnetic resonance in food testing in China will be pioneered, and the high-quality development of food rapid testing technology will be led
.

Last year, the Provincial Department of Finance and the Provincial Intellectual Property Office jointly implemented a special plan for patent transformation, and won 100 million yuan in grants from the central government, supporting 20 colleges and universities and 5 industrial parks to build intellectual property operation centers, and 8 institutions to build public institutions.
Service platform, 4 districts and cities have built leading cities in patent transformation, which has vigorously promoted the transformation and application of intellectual property rights
.

"After the school was selected for the patent transformation project, through the implementation of the project, it further strengthened the awareness of patent layout, built a real-time patent transformation pool, and promoted the benign flow of intellectual property technology to enterprise products
.
" Chen Wei, director of the Social Cooperation Department of Nanjing Agricultural University Tell reporters that the school actively meets the technical needs of enterprises, overcomes the impact of the epidemic, and carries out patent transformation work online and offline, and assists enterprises in analyzing and judging the "pain points" of development
.
In the special match-making activity of Nanjing Agricultural University's online achievement roadshow held in the provincial technology property rights trading market, the school experts conducted in-depth exchanges with entrepreneurs through wonderful project roadshows and achievement promotions, attracting more than 160 enterprises to participate, and finally promoting 60 The remaining cooperation intentions
.

The reporter learned that last year, the Provincial Department of Science and Technology actively promoted the construction of the Provincial Science and Technology Resource Coordination Service Center and the Provincial Technology Property Rights Trading Market.
The "patent (achievement) auction season" and "J-TOP innovation challenge season" both hit record highs in transaction volume.
The contract turnover exceeded 300 billion yuan, an increase of more than 29%
.

"Intellectual property" turns into assets, "introducing living water" for enterprises

The reporter combed the white paper and found that in 2021, there will be 640,917 patent authorizations in the province, of which enterprise patent authorization will account for as high as 85.
28%
.
However, companies with so many "intellectual property", especially some small and medium-sized technology-based enterprises, often have financial constraints due to the lack of real estate guarantees
.
Today, it is also possible to obtain loans from banks by using patents as collateral to turn "intellectual property" into assets
.

"Recently, we obtained a loan of 1 million yuan from China Construction Bank by pledging 3 technical patents including 'a weather monitoring device for agriculture'
.
" Wang Jinhu, head of Nanjing Xinda Security Emergency Management Research Institute Co.
, Ltd.
, told reporters happily, This kind of loan application process is relatively simple, the issuance speed is also fast, and the interest rate is relatively low compared with other loan projects, which solves the company's capital turnover problem
.
"After the loan was confirmed, we immediately used it to invest in research and development of new projects and purchase some technologies, which promoted the process of research and development and production, and we are confident to get more orders in the future
.
"

The reporter learned from the Provincial Intellectual Property Office that by organizing Bank of China, China Construction Bank, etc.
to carry out bank-enterprise docking activities, in 2021, the province's patent and trademark pledge financing amount will reach 28.
645 billion yuan, a year-on-year increase of 81.
63%, benefiting 2,555 enterprises, a year-on-year increase 72.
17%, of which 86.
97% were benefited by inclusive loans of less than 10 million yuan.
The “Internet + Intellectual Property + Finance” model was promoted nationwide by Bank of China and the Head Office of China Construction Bank
.
This year, the Provincial Intellectual Property Office will also work with the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Bureau to actively promote the national pilot program for online registration of intellectual property pledges, improve the efficiency of intellectual property pledge financing, and facilitate the financing of small, medium and micro enterprises
.

"The transformation of 'intellectual property' into assets also encourages our technology enterprises to give full play to their core innovation and more actively apply for invention patents, which is conducive to promoting the transformation of advanced science and technology into productive forces as soon as possible and promoting the development of the national economy
.
" Wang Jinhu said
.

Patent navigation, "taking the pulse" for innovation

"The application of patents also includes the analysis of patent data to find out the shortcomings and deficiencies in industrial development, locate the direction of industrial development, and provide guidance and decision-making references for the government to implement industrial planning and industrial layout
.
" National Patent Navigation Pilot Lu Jieping, director of the Engineering (Jiangsu) Research Base, said that patent navigation is equally important for enterprises, which can allow enterprises to target their innovation and R&D, achieve multiplier effect, and avoid the risk of patent infringement
.

For example, in 2021, Zhenjiang City, in combination with the construction of a strong industrial chain, implemented a patent navigation analysis of the intelligent agricultural machinery industry, and sorted out a total of 900,000 patents
.
By analyzing the global patent distribution of the agricultural machinery industry, positioning Zhenjiang's agricultural machinery industry in the global and national industrial chains, identifying the shortcomings and shortcomings of industrial development, and further clarifying the direction and focus of industrial development.
Intelligent agricultural machinery enterprises, major R&D institutions and inventor teams are clear at a glance
.
"We specially submitted to the government a guideline for the development of Zhenjiang's agricultural machinery industry, including what is the key direction of future industrial development, which key technologies and core technologies require us to organize forces to tackle key problems, and how to deploy patents to protect our industry's core technologies.
How to avoid the risk of patent infringement in industrial development, and provide reference for industrial investment and talent attraction
.
" For agricultural machinery enterprises, they can conduct search and analysis based on the industrial patent database formed by patent navigation to determine their own innovative research and development direction.
, foreign companies have made a large number of patented technologies, enterprises can obtain risk warnings, and effectively avoid them in product development, which can avoid huge losses caused by infringement
.

It is understood that last year, our province deepened the patent navigation project, carried out patent navigation projects around 12 industries such as advanced carbon materials and the Internet of Vehicles, held 10 navigation achievement conferences, and released 10 navigation reports such as smart grids, benefiting more than 600 enterprises
.
At present, our province has established 7 patent navigation service bases to explore the way for the pilot project of the province's patent navigation service system
.
Patent navigation such as Nanjing, Changzhou and Zhenjiang have been fully integrated into the development of local industries
