CALENDAR YEAR 2003 PATENT COUNTS
BY PATENT TYPE
AND
BY STATE AND COUNTRY OF ORIGIN *

This report, prepared from the Technology Assessment and Forecast (TAF) database, displays calendar year U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) patent grants by state and country of origin. This report was prepared on 2/10/2004 and revised on 3/04/2004 to reflect a late patent withdrawal. Separate counts are provided for utility, design, plant, and reissue patents and for statutory invention registrations (SIRs). The 'totals' column, as listed in this report, excludes counts of SIRs.

Patent origin is determined by the residence of the first-named inventor as displayed on the face of each patent. Patent counts are broken down by type of patent document issued by the USPTO.

This table displays counts of U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) patents granted in calendar year 2003 as broken out by patent type (utility, design, plant, and reissue patents and statutory invention registrations) and by state and country of origin.
