South Korean Patent Office Director Park Suga said to the media recently that global technology patent big data analysis shows that China's OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode) related patents have already led South Korea, and China's OLED panel market share may also be 5-10 years later. Beyond Korea.
At present, Korean OLED companies occupy 96.5% of the global market share.
According to the analysis of the Korean Patent Office, after 5-10 years, Korean companies will not be able to maintain their existing market share, and the operation will face a crisis. Now China has significantly surpassed South Korea in the number of new OLED patents. In the mini LED technology that is expected to become a new generation of display technology; the number of patents in South Korea also lags behind the United States and China.
A similar situation has occurred in the field of liquid crystal display (LCD) panels. After the number of Korean LCD patents was overtaken by China for seven years, the leading position of Korean companies in the LCD market was also taken away by Chinese companies.
The Korean Patent Office also stated that patent big data contributes to the establishment of a national industrial strategy. Through data analysis, we can grasp the future trend of the industry in advance, and find that the patent blank field can be entered through R&D investment, and the patent crowding field can adopt international cooperation and other intellectual property strategies.
According to the statistics of the Korean Patent Office, the number of Korean patent applications is at a high level in the world, but the efficiency of technology conversion is about one-third of that in the United States.
