中国与“一带一路”沿线国家间的专利审查高速路建设

Research on Patent Prosecution Highway Construction Between China and the Countries Along the Belt and Road

专利审查高速路是一种专利审查工作共享机制,其产生源于各国应对专利审查积压问题的需要。中国已经与15个“一带一路”沿线国家开展了专利审查高速路建设合作,且相关专利申请数量呈现出逐步增长的趋势。中国与“一带一路”沿线国家间的专利审查高速路建设合作,有助于激励各方的技术创新,有助于各方加强专利保护。在“一带一路”倡议不断发展的背景下,应继续加强与“一带一路”沿线国家间的专利审查高速路建设合作,不断扩大合作范围,拓展合作模式,推动专利审查高速路的不断完善;企业要善于使用专利审查高速路,以便形成专利竞争优势。

Patent Prosecution Highway is a patent examination work sharing mechanism,which originates from the needs of countries to deal with the backlog of patent prosecution.China has cooperated with 15 countries located along the Belt and Road and the number of relevant patent applications shows a gradual growth trend.The Patent Prosecution Highway cooperation between China and the countries along the Belt and Road will help to stimulate technological innovation and help the parties to strengthen patent protection.In the context of the continuous development of the Belt and Road Initiative,China should continue to strengthen cooperation with the countries along the Belt and Road,and expand the scope of cooperation,expand the cooperation mode,and promote the continuous improvement of Patent Prosecution Highway.Chinese enterprises should be good at using the Patent Prosecution Highway in order to form the patent competitive advantage.
