mq, easy, you see, china must surpass japan to get at usa, and must surpass usa to get at 35% allocation of global gdp. it is just math and the equation of time. further, you see, the civilization state, devoid of tv idol worship and less the ethno complications, is aware enough to protest, scare the begeesus out of the officialdom, and trajectory properly, unlike a lot of other places, and certainly no point talking about dynamic nz ;0) - forests do not make civilization. onward to teotwawki

Re <<More patents than Not So Great Britain? With 20 times the population, that's not totally surprising: <"And the growth rate from China was an astonishing 56.2 percent -- astonishing because it's a growth rate that comes on a base that was larger than those of France or the United Kingdom," he told journalists. >

There is a qualitative issue about patents. The GSM Cartel of slime-balls wanted to do what's called patent counting to determine relative royalty shares of W-CDMA/LTE. Qualcomm pointed out that the quality of the inventions matters more than how many of them there are. >> ... following up to 2011 watch & brief, and per imperatives leading to solutions

Side notes / observations:

(i) Teams Russia & China seem to make a good potential pairing

(ii) Ditto Teams Republic of China (RoC) and People's Republic of China (PRC)

(iii) Ditto Teams Singapore, RoC and PRC

(iv) Am guessing, but should one dig into the details am supposing that Teams USA and RoC and PRC and Singapore (and for that matter, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Canada, UK, Australia and Hong Kong chinadailyhk.com ) might share a common language to a large degree that is not English

... and no, I do not know the why's, and do not much care to guess. Only thing that matters be progression to change to better the world.

Mathematics en.wikipedia.org

Physics en.wikipedia.org

Biology en.wikipedia.org

Chemistry en.wikipedia.org

... first slowly, bit by bit, then more complicated, sector by sector, and as we approach 2026 to have sight of 2032, a surging, is what I am guessing, and whatever the case, no surprises

In any case, of the 36 tracked sectors, 29 down, 7 still to go

the watch & brief left out one sector, and that be peace negotiations :0))))))

Which Countries Are Granted The Most New Patents? (Spoiler Alert, Not USA)

Every year, the UN’s World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) tracks hundreds of thousands of patents across industries.

These patents grant their inventors exclusive intellectual property rights over their creations. They encourage new ideas, spur scientific development, and lead to new technologies and entire sectors being born.

However, the number of patents granted varies greatly across nations. When viewing the origin of each patent’s applicant, we see a handful of countries dominating certain industries.

In this graphic, Visual Capitalist's Jacqueline Ann DeStefano-Tangorra uses 2021 WIPO data to showcase which countries were granted the most new patents, along with their sector categorizations.

Countries with the Most New PatentsIn 2021, out of 1,608,375 patents across multiple fields, 87% were granted to innovators from just six countries.

Applicants by CountryGranted Patents (2021)% of TotalWorld Total1,608,375100.0%

After rapidly increasing its patent output in recent years, China topped the chart in 29 out of 36 total fields including computer technology, electrical machinery, and digital communication. The Chinese government’s focus on innovation led to the nation’s applicants receiving 38% of the 1.6 million patents granted in 2021.

The United States—home to the world’s largest tech companies—came in second with 286,205 granted patents by origin. The U.S. also topped four fields of its own: medical technology, engines and turbines, basic communication processes, and unknown (for inventions that can’t be assigned to a specific field).

Not far behind is Japan with 256,890 granted patents. It dominated the other nations in the fields of semiconductors, optics, and furniture and games, cementing its well-earned reputation of technological innovation.

“Unknown” origin applicants, for which the nationality or country of residence couldn’t be determined for the inventor(s), accounted for 24,677 of granted patents.

The Origin of New Patents by FieldWhen assessing which technological fields inventors are pursuing in 2021, it’s not unexpected that digital and electrical technologies are in the lead:

RankMain Field of Technology% of Granted Patents

1	Computer technology	10.3%
2	Electrical machinery, apparatus, energy	6.6%
3	Digital communication	6.5%
4	Measurement	5.9%
5	Medical technology	4.8%
6	Transport	4.5%
7	Civil engineering	3.7%

27	Other consumer goods	1.7%
28	Environmental technology	1.6%

30	Surface technology, coating	1.5%
31	Textile & paper machines	1.5%

33	Basic communication processes	0.6%
34	Analysis of biological material	0.6%
35	Micro structural & nano technology	0.2%
36	Unknown	0.003%

There are also many patents granted mainly in infrastructure-related fields, which have become all the more important following the COVID-19 pandemic and an increasing focus on trade.

These include medical technology, transport, civil engineering, and semiconductors.

A Tech-Savvy Future
The number of patents granted in 2021 is a testament to the growing importance of innovation around the world.

While a select few nations have dominated the patent landscape so far, there are many others making significant contributions to innovation and intellectual property.

As technology continues to advance and the global economy becomes more interconnected, the importance of intellectual property rights will only continue to grow.
