In an era where intellectual property is increasingly central to corporate competitiveness, the efficiency and quality of patent pre-examination are crucial for transforming technological achievements and shaping market strategy. In the first half of 2025, Wuhan WEIPR Patent Agent LLP, under WEIPR Group, delivered outstanding performance in patent pre-examination. With 63 pre-examination filings accepted and an impressive 97% qualification rate, the agency ranks among the industry leaders. Its professional services safeguard the innovation journey for numerous clients, including representative national-level specialized and sophisticated "little giant" enterprises like Siengine Technology.
Siengine's self-developed "Xingchen-1" and "Longying-1" chips have filled the domestic gap for high-computing power smart driving chips, achieving mass production and installation in over 1.5 million smart cockpit units. The rapid authorization of such a dense portfolio of high-quality core patents, far exceeding conventional timelines, directly translates into a core competitive edge for the company. "This serves as a powerful endorsement of our technological prowess, significantly aiding us in securing projects, attracting investment, and fostering customer partnerships," stated a Siengine spokesperson.
The core engine driving this "Wuhan Speed" is the highly efficient patent pre-examination mechanism operated by the Wuhan Intellectual Property Protection Center. This mechanism creates an "express highway" for high-value patents from registered enterprises: once pre-examination approval is granted by the center, patents receive an "acceleration mark" and enter the National Intellectual Property Administration's fast-track examination channel. The average grant cycle is dramatically reduced from the conventional two years to just 2-3 months. For national-level specialized and sophisticated "little giant" enterprises like Siengine, the Protection Center further expedites the process via a "VIP channel" under its "white list" mechanism. The average time from pre-examination submission to completion is just 7 working days.
WEIPR Group deeply understands the strategic importance of rapid high-value patent acquisition for corporate innovation and development, making efficient pre-examination passage a core service capability. In serving clients like Siengine, WEIPR's expert team demonstrates precise mastery of pre-examination rules and processes:
High-value patent identification and portfolio planning: Closely aligning with client R&D progress to accurately identify and strategically position innovations meeting pre-examination requirements, ensuring foundational application quality.
High-quality document drafting: Strictly adhering to pre-examination standards to prepare high-quality application files featuring clear technical descriptions, stable claims, and complete formal requirements, striving for first-pass pre-examination approval.
Optimized process management: Implementing meticulous control over pre-examination milestones to ensure seamless transitions between stages, preventing procedural delays from impacting overall grant speed.
Moving forward, WEIPR Group will continue to deepen its expertise and refine pre-examination service processes. It remains committed to helping more technology innovators efficiently secure patent grants, transforming their innovation advantages into market victories faster, and contributing to the high-quality development of the IP industry.
