Tiivistelmä
This study provides benchmarking analysis of patent and trademark applications in the European
Union. The objectives of benchmarking are (1) to determine what and where improvements are
called for, (2) to analyze how other nations achieve their high performance levels, and (3) to use
this information to improve performance in favor of the EU Internal Market.
The benchmarking study provides benchmarking results about (1) patent applications of residents
and nonresidents, (2) trademark applications of residents and nonresidents, (3) total patent applications,
and (4) total trademark applications. The study also provides benchmarking analyses
about patent and trademark application in relation to population and gross domestic product.
The results of benchmarking cover the time period 1960–2013. The study provides some comparative
statistical analyses and discusses whether there has been convergence in patent and
trademark activity in the European Union. The study identifies top 10 champions in the different
categories of patent and trademark activity. Key results will be reported in the forms of descriptive
statistics, Pareto charts, and key statistical indicators. Some special indicators of innovation
activity will be reported. The study provides some policy relevant results for the EU Internal Market
development.
