The study presented below is based on the analysis of the records of patent applications within the framework of the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT for its acronym in English), in which they have participated as Colombian holders, and that have been presented during the last 20 years in jurisdictions other than Colombia. The information was obtained from the patent database of the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). Among the factors analyzed is the dynamics in which there was cooperation between the holders and the technological sectors with the greatest protection trend, for this a quantitative approach with a descriptive approach was used. The results show that the countries of greatest interest to process patent applications are Europe, North America and Asia, with minimal participation in the Central and South American region, in the same way the collaborative work stands out, which is notorious for the high number of applications submitted. in co-ownership, be it a company, university, government body or natural person, only a third of the applications correspond to those headed by a single owner, of which about half correspond to natural persons; This panorama reflects the high degree of cooperation around which the technological developments that relate to Colombians are generated. |
