2013 STATE OF INNOVATION INDIA REPORT FEATURING DWPI

INTRODUCTION Innovation continues to be the salvation term and strategy of the decade. Countries are innovating for economic prosperity. Companies are innovating for competitive advantage. And individuals are mastering the art (and science) of innovation for personal and professional success.

The report showcases 12 leading sectors and analyzes their innovation level based on patent activity for inventions originating from India. Patents are a proxy for innovation. Inventive ideas that are unprotected cannot be successfully commercialized. Therefore, by looking at patent activity, one gets a true picture of the innovative landscape, regardless of how commercially successful an invention is.

Data in this report was compiled using Thomson Reuters Derwent World Patents Index (DWPISM), the worlds most trusted and authoritative collection of editorially enhanced patent information for 50 years. Analysis was conducted by the Thomson Reuters Intellectual Property (IP) Services team in India, providers of expert research, analysis and consulting services for corporations, law firms, and governments.

Indian priority patent applications published in India during 2012 were retrieved and analysed by broad technology sector (DWPI Classification) to identify the twelve key Indian technology sectors. For each of these technology areas, the major foreign and Indian patent assignees were identified. Further analysis was conducted to identify the most important technology subsectors within each sector.

The technology areas in India with the largest volume of innovation are Pharmaceuticals, Computing & Control, Communications, and Transportation. Within Pharmaceuticals and Transportation, innovation is especially prevalent from Indian companies. Innovation in Computing & Control and Communications shows a wider mix of Indian and foreign concerns.

The largest individual subsector for innovation activity was in general organic pharmaceuticals which alone notched up more than 1,000 inventions in India in 2012.

Other significant subsectors with large numbers of Indian patent applications in 2012 were Computers (949), Pharmaceutical Natural Products & Polymers (500), and Dentistry & Toiletries (360)

This report is part of the series of State of Innovation reports published by Thomson Reuters every year.
