Recently, Qixingtian (Beijing) Consulting Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Qixingtian) announced that it has successfully acquired nearly 220 patents of Seiko in the technical fields of LCD, LED and OLED. These patents will be mainly used for Domestic operations. Experts said that the involvement of professional intermediaries can effectively help domestic enterprises improve the efficiency and quality of obtaining foreign patents, and reduce the cost and risk of overseas patent acquisitions by domestic enterprises. At the same time, it will help broaden the channels for Chinese companies to obtain overseas patents.

Domestic enterprises have a shortage of overseas patents
In fact, from the current development of some domestic industries, there is a general process of introducing technology from overseas and digesting it, gradually realizing industrial autonomy, and then seeking overseas development. Taking the patents of LCD and LED fields acquired by Qixingtian as an example, the development of LCD industry in the world has basically formed the pattern of Japan, South Korea and China. Statistics show that as of now, in the United States, where the world's patent market is most active, companies in Japan, South Korea and other countries have a large number of LCD US patents and are in a leading position. Chinese applicants submit fewer US patent applications.
"In inverse proportion to the number of applications, China ranks among the top in the LCD industry's production capacity and has become the most important product processing and exporting country in the LCD industry," said Long Xing, chairman of Qixingtian, in an interview with China Intellectual Property News.
With the expansion of market share and the improvement of profitability, LCD manufacturers in mainland China are increasingly facing pressure from the intellectual property of international competitors. Therefore, under the circumstances of continuous development of the industry, relatively backward patent applications and the risk of overseas litigation, the number of overseas patent applications in the LCD industry in China does not match the rapid development momentum of domestic enterprises. Domestic enterprises need to fill short overseas patents. board.
It is understood that Qixingtian's overseas "prey" has also attracted the attention of many domestic enterprises. "We are currently evaluating the patent for the acquisition of Qixingtian. Japan Seiko is a very competitive competitor. It has a global market and diversified liquid crystal display, liquid crystal display device, mobile phone LCD screen, etc. Products. As the target of operation, the products, legal status and areas to which the series of patents are involved are very important. We look forward to learning more information, and we may try to cooperate with Qixingtian in the future.†Deputy of LED Industry Patent Alliance Secretariat Secretary-General Wang Hua said in an interview with this reporter that the patent concentration and reserve of LED lighting and derivative industries will become the norm, and the LED industry patent alliance itself is actively carrying out the "LED industry protective patent collection plan."
Give full play to the professional advantages of intermediaries
In the interview, the reporter learned that at present, the vast majority of domestic enterprises build overseas patent libraries, mainly submitting patent applications, and in rare cases, they are supplemented by overseas patent acquisitions. Among them are the reasons for the high price of overseas patents, the existence of institutional barriers, and the difficulty of acquisition. At the same time, the company lacks the information sources and channels of patent acquisition and the ability of patent screening and bargaining. In recent years, although domestic companies have successfully patented overseas patents, they are giant companies such as Huawei, Lenovo, and Alibaba. SMEs are rarely heard.
"It is foreseeable that with the increasing overseas patent demand of some industries and enterprises in China, the demand for overseas patent acquisitions will also increase. Through the intervention of patent operators, they can give full play to their own advantages and meet the actual needs of enterprises with specialized services. Long Xiang said that during the negotiations with Japanese companies, he found that due to the shrinking of the Japanese LCD industry, many companies have the willingness to sell patents, and the patent resources involved have been used by non-patent implementing entities in other countries and regions. NPE) is targeted, and once these patents are acquired by overseas “patent hooligansâ€, they are likely to become weapons for patent infringement lawsuits against Chinese companies, causing huge losses to Chinese LED companies and industries.
"In the current prominent role of intellectual property rights, there are specialized institutions engaged in patent operations is an inevitable outcome. Patent operators have their own advantages and channels. In the future, we hope to strengthen cooperation with domestic and foreign institutions in the 'LED industry protection. Strengthen the exchange of patent collection plan, patent information development and utilization, patent pool formation and quality improvement, jointly improve the patent competitiveness of domestic LED enterprises and industries, and provide intellectual property protection and services for domestic enterprises to go global.
