U.S. patent statistics

When researching industries, companies and technology, have you ever stopped to consider what insight patent activity might provide?
Patent activity is an indicator of technological activity, both foreign and domestic and therefore provides a unique perspective particularly for the economic activities of competitors and industries. By looking at the “who, where, what and when“ of patent activity, one can derive interesting information about technology and industry. Patent documents contain technical information not published elsewhere and as a result, can be a powerful tool for many uses other than the obvious ones.
Since browsing through patent documents is not ideal when researching general trends within industries and geographic areas, this tutorial will guide you through the United States Patent and Trademark Office's website in order to locate pre-existing patent reports as well as show you how to create your own reports.
What if you are are curious about technological development in the state of Connecticut? What if you are curious about the current technological trends in biotechnology?
For this, consider discovering the wealth of information provided by patent statistics!
