The Russian Federation's patent applications have shown a mixed trend over the past 30 years, with a significant decline following the 1997 trough, where applications plummeted to 15,106.00. Since then, the country has experienced a steady increase, albeit at a slower pace, reaching 19,569.00 in 2021, ranking 7th globally. Notably, this recovery has been gradual, with the peak year of 1992, when applications stood at 39,494.00, far outpacing the current rate. In comparison, India has shown a more rapid increase, reaching 26,267.00 in 2021, while France has maintained a relatively stable rate, at 13,386.00 in 2021. Germany, however, has maintained a higher rate throughout, with 39,822.00 in 2021. The continued growth of Russian patent applications is likely to be influenced by advancements in technology and innovation, particularly in the fields of renewable energy and artificial intelligence, which could potentially drive the country's intellectual property landscape and shift its trajectory upward.
