2013 State of Innovation

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
SM
Index (DWPI ), 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.
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.
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.
