Patent publications refer to the total number of patent documents associated with a company’s inventions. A single invention may have multiple related documents, such as applications, grants, and international filings. As a result, counting these documents can sometimes create the impression that a company has more unique inventions than it actually does.

Sign-up todayPatent publications refer to the total number of official patent documents associated with all the inventions a company has filed. These documents include initial patent applications, granted patents, and any subsequent publications related to amendments or legal events. This figure not only reflects the company’s research and innovation activity but also its commitment to protecting and commercialising its intellectual property. A higher number of patent publications can indicate a robust R&D effort and a strategic approach to managing its patent portfolio.
