Reports By Patented Technology

Selected Technology Reports

PTMT selected technology reports are updated periodically and consist of the following parts:

- Part A1 provides a count for utility patents (i.e., “patents for inventions”) granted during the reporting period. The utility patent grants are distributed by origin, as determined by the residence of the first-named inventor, and by year of grant. The grants also are distributed separately by the general category of ownership (e.g., corporate-owned, government-owned, or individual-owned) and by year of grant. Annual counts are displayed for each of the last 14 years.
- Part A2 displays the same breakouts as in Part A1 but with the patents distributed by the year of application.
- Part B shows the national and international corporations, government agencies, and other organizations that have received the most utility patents during the reporting period. Patent grants are distributed by year of grant and by year of application with annual counts displayed for each of the last 14 years.
