And the World's 2009 Patent Winners Are...

From Business Week

Who are the patent champs of 2009? Samsung and Toyota, of course. But would you have guessed Mondobiotech, a Swiss company that specializes in fermentation? 

Patent volume doesn’t equal innovation. But all these Excel spreadsheets do suggest where inventiveness is flourishing. By industry, creativity abounds most in computers and peripherals. This sector tallied 226,293 patents last year, or 29% of the total of all 12 groupings. Second is semiconductors with 95,106 patents, followed by telecommunications with 90,867, and automotive with 89,106, or roughly 12% each. 

In smart media, Samsung is tops. It’s also No. 1 in space vehicles and satellite technologies within aerospace, discrete devices within semiconductors, and mobile telephony within telecommunications. Toyota leads in both petroleum fuels and chemical engineering within petrochemicals, and alternative-powered vehicles within automotive. 

Here is Top 10 list to ponder. It’s organics, which account for nearly two-thirds of new patents worldwide in the pharmaceutical industry.

1. National Institute of Biological Science, Beijing
2. Mondobiotech
3. Roche
4. University of California
5. Zhejiang University, China
6. National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science & Technology, Japan
7. Suzhou ANJ Biotech
8. Novartis
9. Abbott Laboratories
10. Kao
