Geely is leading Chinese automakers in terms of innovative capacity, according to a report unveiled in late January by the intellectual property and science business of information provider Thomson Reuters. The report examined recent patent trends in the automotive field, including companies involved innovation and segments that have grown the fastest, based on data during the past five years. The report looked into innovation activities in five broad categories of the automotive industry-propulsion, navigation, handling, safety and entertainment. Findings showed that propulsion attracted more patents than any other technology area. Patents in the safety and security category also increased. Meanwhile, patent activity in the other three categories stayed flat or dipped. The gLAWcal Team LIBEAC project Wednesday, 4 February2015 (Source: China Daily)
