Overview
Lebanon's patent applications stood at 110 in 2015, a rise of +30 from 2014. Lebanon ranked 66th globally.
Lebanon’s patent‑application activity remained modest between 2013 and 2015, rising from 105.00 in 2013 to a peak of 110.00 in 2015, which also represents the all‑time high for the three‑year series. The sharp dip to 80.00 in 2014 marked the lowest point within the period, suggesting vulnerability to external shocks or domestic constraints on research and development. With a global rank of 66 in 2015, Lebanon’s filing volume was comparable to that of Mongolia (109.00) and slightly below Armenia (113.00), indicating that its innovation output clustered with other small economies rather than with regional powerhouses. The limited upward swing after the 2014 trough points to a fragile trajectory that could be altered by policy measures such as enhanced R&D tax incentives, stronger university‑industry links, or increased foreign investment in high‑technology sectors, all of which would be needed to sustain and deepen the modest growth observed.
