8、rview of intellectual property (IP) activity using the latest available year of complete statistics. The figures presented here are drawn from WIPOs more comprehensive World Intellectual Property Indicators 2020.IP Facts and Figures serves as a quick reference guide covering four types of industrial

9、 property: patents, utility models, trademarks and industrial designs. It focuses primarily on application data, which is the most often used measure of IP activity. Trademark application data refer to class counts that is, the number of classes specified in applications. This affords a better compa

10、rison of international trademark filing activity across IP offices, because applications in some jurisdictions may specify multiple classes of goods and services, while others require a separate application for each class. Similarly, industrial design data refer to design counts that is, the number

11、of designs contained in applications.Unless otherwise stated, all data refer to activity in calendar year 2019 and growth means annual growth, that is, the change from 2018 to 2019.Please note that, due to the continual updating of statistics, data provided in this publication may differ from previo
