WHAT IS PATENT INFORMATION :

Patent information includes not only the content of published patent documents but also bibliographic and other information concerning patents for inventions, inventors’ certificates, utility certificates and utility models. It is the largest, well-classified and most up-to-date collection of technical documents on new and innovative technologies.

Patent applications are filed in accordance with the requirements of national or regional patent laws. An applicant may be a public and private company, government agency, researcher in a university or in a research and development institution, or even individual inventors.

A patent document contains in a standardized form, a wealth of information about the state-of-the-art, adjudged in the international context, in technological developments in that area of technology.
