激活高价值核心专利 厚植创新竞争力

Core Insights - As of June 2023, China's strategic emerging industries have reached 1.472 million effective invention patents, which is 2.2 times the amount at the end of the 13th Five-Year Plan, accounting for about 70% of high-value invention patents [1] - The challenge lies in efficiently transforming these high-value core patents into tangible industrial competitiveness and market influence [1] Policy Recommendations - Policies need to be refined to enhance the patent conversion rate in universities and research institutions, addressing the systemic barriers that hinder patent transfers [2] - There should be a stronger connection between supply and demand in patent conversion, with institutions responding quickly to market needs and enterprises analyzing technology demands along the industrial chain [2] Cost Reduction Strategies - The government should create innovation-sharing platforms to lower the costs associated with patent conversion, particularly in the biomanufacturing sector where the pilot testing phase can consume 40% to 60% of total R&D investment and take 3 to 5 years [3] - Recent initiatives from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the National Development and Reform Commission aim to build pilot testing capacity, addressing high-cost barriers in the industrialization process [3] Collaborative Ecosystem Development - Breakthrough innovations in strategic emerging industries increasingly depend on deep integration across fields and disciplines, yet technical barriers and standard gaps hinder the free flow of innovation elements [4] - Encouraging the formation of innovation consortia led by leading enterprises, with deep participation from academia and research, can facilitate technology sharing and reduce collaborative innovation costs [4] Capital Empowerment - The capital market should be more adept at identifying and supporting hard-tech companies with high-value patent reserves and clear conversion pathways, fostering a virtuous cycle of "technology-industry-finance" [5] - Knowledge property asset securitization is emerging as a potential innovative financing method, allowing technology companies to convert intellectual property into tradable financial assets [5] - As of July 18, 2023, 20 knowledge property asset securitization products have been successfully issued this year, raising over 2 billion yuan, accelerating the monetization of high-value core patents [5] Conclusion - A strong synergy among policies, capital, and innovation ecosystems is expected to activate the industrialization potential of high-value invention patents, enhancing China's innovation competitiveness and driving high-quality economic growth [6]
