Interestingly, Chinese applicants were not among the top 100 applicants seeking patent protection in Europe despite their overall leadership and growth. One of the possible explanations for such discrepancy could be a Chinese IP-related subsidy program which triggered the rise of domestic rather incremental innovations that newer crossed the Chinese border.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-4 fusion_builder_column_1_2 1_2 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:50%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:3.84%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:20px;--awb-spacing-left-large:3.84%;--awb-width-medium:50%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:3.84%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:3.84%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"flourish-embed flourish-chart\" data-src=\"visualisation\/6806043\"><script src=\"https:\/\/public.flourish.studio\/resources\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-7 fusion-text-no-margin\" style=\"--awb-font-size:18px;--awb-margin-top:50px;--awb-margin-bottom:50px;\"><p>The applicants&#8217; ranking followed the country of origins&#8217; trend.
