Роль интеллектуальной собственности в инновационной деятельности российских фармацевтических предприятий

Abstract

The authors of the study analyze the role played by the intellectual property of domestic and foreign applicants in the Russian segment of the international pharmaceutical market, based on data on patent activity. Modern realities of the Russian pharmaceutical industry are formed under the influence of two multidirectional processes – protectionist policy and technology development in the format of open innovations, which influence the choice of tools for solving the problems of innovation management. Domestic patent holders began to take an increasingly tough stance against competitors from foreign countries, but they still lose to foreign pharmaceutical companies in the quantitative volume of protected technical solutions. The paper presents an analysis of patent applications filed with Rospatent and the Eurasian Patent Office related to the pharmaceutical industry. The authors assessed the share of patent applications in the field of medicine and pharmaceuticals in the total number of technical solutions submitted for registration. Con-clusions and recommendations for optimizing the management systems of Russian pharmaceutical companies and the development of domestic pharmaceuticals are made in relation to existing economic cycles. The changes that have taken place in the region over the past 11 years are identified, and directions for the development of the pharmaceutical industry are formulated.
