English abstract

This paper investigates international collaboration of Indian inventors in patenting, using United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) database from 1976-2004. The result indicates that Indian inventors had 911 patents with the inventors of 28 countries. It examines these patent documents in terms of patent assignees and their countries, type of assignees, areas of patenting, joint ownerships and key players holding these patents. It is observed that Indian inventors have contributed mostly in the areas of information and communications technology (ICT), medicines, drugs & pharmaceuticals, veterinary medicine & hygiene, organic chemistry, and organic macro molecular compounds, etc. The paper also attempts to gain an insight for policy relevance.
