Abstract

Among the most innovative nations globally, China, Japan and South Korea have stood out notably in recent decades, assuming leading positions in several sectors of the world market. This feat was achieved through the application of robust policies and a focus on innovation, which allowed companies in these countries to explore new technologies and markets, resulting in the significant generation of patents. Given this scenario, the present study set out to analyze the sectoral priorities of these nations and evaluate their dynamics in the Brazilian market. To carry out this analysis, patent application data obtained from the WIPO database was used, covering the period between 2001 and 2021. During this interval, a total of 48,866 patent applications were made, revealing the different sectors of interests of these countries on the Brazilian market, reflecting the technological domains prioritized by them in Brazil.
