April 26th is World Intellectual Property Day. In recent years, China has achieved significant results in building a strong intellectual property country, steadily improving its comprehensive competitiveness in intellectual property, and achieving historic achievements in the field of intellectual property. It is transitioning from a major country in the introduction of intellectual property to a major country in the creation of intellectual property, making important contributions to promoting the development of the global intellectual property governance system towards a more just and reasonable direction. According to data released by the World Intellectual Property Organization in February this year, China has created an innovation ecosystem in a very comprehensive manner. In 2022, the total number of international patent applications reached 278100, making it the year with the highest total number of applications in history. Asia remains the main source of international patent applications, accounting for 54.7% of the total number of applications in 2022. For the first time, the number of international patent applications from China has exceeded 70000, ranking first in the world for four consecutive years. Deng Hongsen, Director General of the World Intellectual Property Organization, stated that in the context of the complex and severe global economic situation and the unstable and unbalanced recovery, Chinese enterprises continue to invest in innovation. China has joined the Hague Agreement on the International Registration of Industrial Design, actively integrating into the global system of design, promoting the improvement of industrial design innovation capabilities, and helping China's creativity, design, and manufacturing go global. The international patent applications of Chinese enterprises and educational research institutions have attracted attention. Among the top 20 patent applicants in 2022, there are 6 Chinese companies. Huawei has applied for 7689 international patents, ranking first on the list. In the field of education, there are 7 Chinese universities among the top 20 universities. Multiple data shows that China has become a true intellectual property power and a leader in global innovation. The 2022 Global Innovation Index report released by the World Intellectual Property Organization points out that China's global ranking in the field of innovation has continued to steadily improve in recent years, rising to 11th place in 2022, making it the only middle-income economy to enter the top 15. The progress of China's comprehensive strength in intellectual property and technological innovation capabilities reflects the tremendous achievements made by China's comprehensive implementation of the new development concept, in-depth implementation of the innovation driven development strategy, and comprehensive strengthening of intellectual property protection. Deng Hongsen stated at the 2022 Global Innovation Index press conference that China's achievements demonstrate the effectiveness of a country's use of innovation as a growth engine and extensive attention. China has created an innovation ecosystem in a very comprehensive manner, which is an important factor for China's success. Currently, patent applications from China account for nearly 10% of the total patent applications from the European Patent Office. Louise Berengel Simmons, spokesperson for the European Patent Office, told our reporter in an interview: "China has increased investment in digital technology, especially information and communication technology, driving the rapid growth of patent applications." He noted that Chinese companies are also increasingly active in patent applications in fields such as biotechnology and medical technology. In recent years, China has attached great importance to intellectual property protection as a key factor in promoting economic development. It has improved the quality and efficiency of the international patent system. This year marks the 50th anniversary of China's cooperation with the World Intellectual Property Organization. Deng Hongsen stated that China is the world
