Aerospace and defence

The successful Boeing Company, the self-proclaimed number one in the US when it comes to patents in the aerospace and defense industry, exemplifies the importance of IP in the industry today. The company was granted 405 US patents in 2005 and its number one position was affirmed by an analysis of “pipeline power” measured in terms of originality, variety and the rate of increase in the number of patents obtained.

Special to aerospace and defense companies is the ever increasing investment in long-term R&D and the capital strength required to meet customers’ constant demand for indemnification, as well as their stringent requirements for new technology that is proven reliable, accurate and safe. At the same time, customers need to stay ahead of competitors. Boeing has proved that it is possible for an aerospace and defense company to achieve such goals by implementing an IP strategy.
