Editor's Notes
- Ocean Tomo, LLC, the US’s premiere Intellectual Capital Merchant firm, issued findings from its annual study of the composition of equity market value. In 2010, the implied intangible asset value of the S&P 500 reached 80%, vs. only 17% in 1975. The global transformation to a knowledge economy continues to place an unprecedented focus on corporate intangible assets generally, and specifically on a firm’s intellectual property -- its patents, trademarks and copyrights. This three decade total economic inversion concentrated around intangible assets carries significant ongoing implications for the investment community.
- In the World Intellectual Property Indicators 2014, the Chinese mainland is once again on the top of the league tables for patents, trademarks and industrial designs, as measured by the number of applications. Since 2011, the mainland has surpassed the US as the world’s number-one patent filer. In 2013, the mainland’s patent office received more than 825,000 patent applications, a growth of 26%. The trademark office of the mainland has been the largest in the world since early 2000s. The mainland has also received the largest volume of industrial design filings since the late 1990s.
- The surge in demand for technologies, business services and the need to commercialise and internationalise the fruits of R&D on the mainland point to the important role of Hong Kong. Recently, Hong Kong has been named by Forbes as one of the world’s top 4 tech capitals to look out for, together with London, Tel Aviv, and Washington DC.
- The non-resident filing of patents, trademarks and industrial designs in Hong Kong are 98.4%, 64.1% and 65.2% respectively. The high percentage of non-resident filings in Hong Kong has reflected the popularity of Hong Kong being Asia’s Global IP trading hub.
- In a survey conducted by the HKTDC with 509 senior executives of companies from 10 leading cities in the Asia Pacific region, over 50% of the respondents chose Hong Kong over Singapore and Shanghai as the perceived leader of the region in IP trading, and over 75% of the respondents involved in IP trading expected Hong Kong’s leadership position to be strengthened or maintained in the coming 5 to 10 years, although Singapore and Shanghai will be catching up. While the neighbour economies all vying to be Asia’s global IP hub, Hong Kong is also stepping up efforts to maintain the lead.
- Worldwide Licensing Industry landscape: United State was by far the most dominant region in the licensing market. In 2014 the worldwide licensing industry was worth approximately US$155.8bn at retail up 2.0% from 2013. The USA generating approximately US$94bn (approximately US$4.95bn in royalties) and the Rest of World was US$62bn. Untapped Asian Markets: In 2014, Asia accounted for 12.2% of global retail sales of licensed merchandise, reaching US$19.4 bn in retail sales on licensed merchandise, an increase of 3.1%, fueled by recovery in Japan and continued high growth in China. Fastest growing China market: China is now Asia’s largest market for licensed merchandise (excluding Japan). In 2014, the mainland’s licensed merchandise sales reached almost US$5.9 bn. That was up more than 8% over the previous year.
- At $19.4 billion, Asia’s licensed goods market grew 3.1% in 2014, 50% above the global average and second highest of any territory (trailing only the Middle East and Africa at 4.4%). Asia now accounts for 12.2% of global sales. But while most countries and regions in Asia were up, the narrative differed across locations. Asia has huge market potential in Licensing Very low per capita retail sales of licensed merchandise Largest market share and most rapid growth in China In most of the Asian countries, except Japan, all recorded a growth in market share in 2012-2014. From which China achieved the highest growth of 8%. It echoes the fueling demand of Chinese on branded and licensed merchandise. Compared with those mature markets like US and Canada, Asian licensing markets are untapped and have huge potential to expand.

- Hong Kong has a number of major advantages that distinguishes itself from other regional competitors as Asia’s global technology transfer and IP trading hub. Hong Kong has an excellent ‘software’ for conducting IP business, including a reliable and transparent legal system with a strong cluster of legal service providers who are familiar with international, Chinese mainland and local standards and practices, and a simple and low tax regime. Hong Kong is also a hub for international trade and finance. Its IP-focused trade fairs help overseas companies market their IPs while the availability of professional financial services helps finance their IP creations. Hong Kong is situated right next to the Chinese mainland, which has a rising demand for IP that Hong Kong can help fulfil by connecting mainland companies with their overseas counterparts, riding on our knowledge of international business practice, as well as world-class professional services that facilitate IP transactions.
- As one of the important promotions, the HK Government also jointly organised the Business of IP Asia Forum with HKTDC and HK Design Centre. Being one of the largest IP events in Asia, the Forum has come into its 5th edition with the theme “IP: Transforming Global Business”, aiming to bring IP professionals and business leaders together to discuss the latest developments in the global IP market. The last edition featured over 80 renowned speakers with large technology brand names such as Sony, LG Electronics, Samsung Display, Intel, Siemens and Philips. Over 2,000 participants from 36 countries and regions attended the conference. This year we will also expect over 2,000 attendees joining the event.
- This year we have already engaged the Executive Director of HKTDC, the Chief Executive, Commissioner of the State Intellectual Property Office and the Director-General of the World Intellectual Property Office to speak at the Opening Session. After the Opening Session, we will have the first Plenary Session to discuss the Sustainable IP Business Model in the Ever-changing World. Senior IP representatives from Unilever and P&G have confirmed to speak and we are now inviting Robert Bosch to join. Following after, we will have the second Plenary Session on the Global Trends for IP Licensing Strategies. We have Google, Qualcomm and ZTE to share and speak for us.
- In addition, over 15 breakout sessions will also be organised under four thematic tracks, namely: IP Practical Tips Industry-Specific IPs Asian Trends Quick Guide to IP Basics to accommodate the different needs of our audience. Specifically under the industry-specific IPs track, new innovation-related IP topics such as IP issues in 3D printing, big data, wearable tech etc will be discussed to encompass all the latest market development trends
- The Forum also offers a lot of networking opportunities for the attendees through the expanded exhibition zone with over 50 exhibitors and coffee breaks. So please mark your diary on 3-4 December and we hope to greet you at the Forum.
- Having introduced the BIP Asia Forum, I would also like to tell you more about the Asia IP Exchange. Officially launched in December 2013, AsiaIPEX is an online IP trading platform owned and managed by the HKTDC. Riding on the close partnership forged with 29 official IP promotional bodies, technology transfer offices of various universities, R&D centres and industry associations from around the world, the AsiaIPEX carries over 25,000 tradable IPs. It covers a wide array of sectors include technology, medical, electronics, film and publication etc. So far, over 14,000 users have registered for the portal and close to 390,000 page views have been recorded.
- These are the 29 partners that we have now.
- To promote the AsiaIPEX among IP industry players worldwide, we staged promotions at over 30 local and overseas IP events this year, for instance the Association of University Technology Managers (AUTM) Annual Meeting, Licensing Executives Society (LES) Annual Meeting, the IP Business Congress (IPBC), as well as INTA Annual Meeting where we orgnanised a Hong Kong Welcome Reception. To further extend the foothold of the AsiaIPEX among a wider range of global IP elites, we will continue to promote the AsiaIPEX at world-renowned IP events. On the other hand, we also strive to promote AsiaIPEX among manufacturers who acquire technologies to upgrade their operation. We will continue to stage promotions at overseas exhibitions as well as various design and licensing seminars organise in Taiwan and Chinese mainland.
