WIPO’s 2024 World Intellectual Property Indicators
WIPO has published the 2024 edition of its World Intellectual Property Indicators (WIPI). This annual survey analyzes IP activity around the globe. Drawing on 2023 filing, registration and renewals statistics from national and regional IP offices and WIPO, WIPI covers patents, utility models, trade marks, industrial designs, microorganisms, plant variety protection and geographical indications. One of the main highlights is that India is for the first time in the top 10 across the three main IP rights included in WIPI, with both patent and industrial design applications more than doubling between 2018 and 2023 and trade mark applications increasing by 60%.
