Tonight, I suggest reading China aiming to triple patents by 2020.
Reuters tells us "China is targeting 14 invention patents per 10,000 habitants by 2020 compared to four in 2013." Note China published 629,612 patents in 2013, which is 200,00 more than the USA.
China Central People's government says it wants to be a bigger player in tech so aims to triple the number of patents it files by 2020 as Beijing looks to boost the country's high-tech economy in areas, reduce the length of the review process, and boost IP protection to address foreign firms contentions that IP law in China sometimes favors local players.
