Overview
Peru's patent applications stood at 94 in 2021, a decline of +31 from 2020. Peru ranked 64th globally.
Peru's patent applications have exhibited significant fluctuations over the past 38 years, with a notable trajectory marked by an all-time peak in 2019 of 137.00, followed by a decline to 94.00 in 2021, placing the country at the 64th position globally. In contrast, 1992 saw a trough with a mere 21.00 patent applications, indicating a stark contrast to the current level. Similarly, countries such as the Syrian Arab Republic, which ranked 102.00 in 2021, and Latvia, which ranked 104.00, demonstrate a slower pace of growth in patent applications. Despite the downward trend from the peak, Peru's patent application numbers remain higher than in 1980, when the indicator started. The continued growth of the global economy and advancements in technology are likely to influence the trajectory of patent applications in Peru, potentially leading to an increase in innovative activities and subsequently contributing to a rise in patent applications.
