The Chine dominates the list of countries with the highest number of patents filed, an impressive achievement that highlights the country’s commitment to innovation and research. According to data from the World Intellectual Property Organization (OMI), in 2021, China filed a total of 607,758 patents, i.e. 37.8% of patents granted worldwide. This puts China far ahead the United States, which has filed 286,205 patents, accounting for 17.8% of the total. THE Japan follows with 256,890 patentsor 16% of the total.
China’s patent dominance spans a wide range of sectors. China topped the rankings in 29 of the total 36 areas, including computer technology, electrical machinery and digital communication. These figures clearly show the importance that China places on innovation, which could ultimately threaten the position of the United States as a world leader in technology and innovation.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump has recently voiced his fears that Asian power could take the place of the United States. He stated that “we will be a second tier country if this happens“, referring to the possible adoption of the Yuan as a currency of trade by other countries in the world. Trump stressed the importance of the American currency in maintaining the power and strength of the United States. But he China seems to be attacking several areas in which the United States was the undisputed leader.
Patent filing figures show that China has become a major player in innovation and technology. Competition between China and the United States will continue to escalate, and it is essential to closely monitor China’s progress and assess the potential implications for the United States and the rest of the world.
