Methodology for constructing an innovative patent index in the paradigm of state intellectual sovereignty
EDN: fhesvz
Abstract
The article examines the concept of intellectual sovereignty as a new paradigm for state development. It substantiates the need to move from simplified quantitative metrics to a comprehensive assessment system that includes key qualitative parameters: the technological significance of developments, their commercial value, the potential for technology transfer, and the level of intellectual property protection. The study addresses the challenge of developing a methodology for constructing an innovation patent index – a tool that allows for objectively tracking the dynamics of a country’s movement toward intellectual sovereignty. The mathematical expressions for calculating the indicators were substantiated on the basis of expert methods and analysis of statistical data on the number of registered patents, the terms of maintaining patents in force, and the number of cases of exercising exclusive rights to inventions and industrial designs. The methodology for constructing the innovation patent index was based on the following principles: measurability, reliability, adaptability, and compliance with modern scientific approaches. The method proposed by the authors for calculating the innovation patent index contains fundamentally new solutions that make it possible to quantitatively assess the potential for the development and protection of intellectual property in selected areas from the point of view of patent law.
