Who is at the forefront of technological development?
Next, we will observe the geographical distribution of patents based on two indicators:
- Number of protection records by origin (origin of inventors and developer organizations): This indicator shows the degree of innovation, as well as places with robust research and development systems on the subject.
- Number of registrations by destination of protection (potential target markets): This indicator is of vital importance to know the established markets where the commercialization of products can be sustainable.
