Interpretation of “Patent Navigation”
Patent navigation, based on the utilization of patent information resources and patent analysis, embeds patent application into industrial technological innovation, product innovation, organizational innovation, and business model innovation. It is an exploratory work to guide and support the scientific development of industry.
The main purpose of patent navigation is to explore and establish an operating mechanism that deeply integrates patent information analysis with industrial operation decision-making, highly matches patent creation with industrial innovation capabilities, ensures patent layout effectively guarantees industrial competitive status, and realizes patent value to effectively support industrial operation efficiency, thus to promote the collaborative use of patents in the industry, cultivate and form a new model of patent navigation industry development.
The work of patent navigation will involve all aspects of an enterprise, not only related to the receiving of patent information, but also the screening and analysis of all the information involved. In the face of such a huge amount of information data, a professional institutional team can search for information more completely and comprehensively, filter out the information for key clear and effective information, and thus provide efficient solutions more rapidly, which greatly improves efficiency for enterprises. More than that, the professional team could dig out key clues and build a patent information system to serve corporate comprehensive and accurate strategies.
