If explained briefly, Patent-Box scheme in UK aims to reduce the tax liabilities of

qualifying companies on income generated through patents and specifically rewa

those companies who engage in R&D (or innovation) from conception

commercialisation of patents (scheme excludes products with copyright or tradem

protection). The UK Patent Box that went live in April 2013 is a recent initiative bu

Belgium, Luxembourg and Netherlands, such schemes have already been successf

implemented.

This particular article on Patent Box aims to provide the reader a brief understandin

the concept Patent Box in UK, organizations or companies/ corporates who may qua

and the benefits that Patent Box in UK may accrue to those qualifying for it.

Purpose of the Patent Box

1. The Patent Box provides a reduced corporation tax rate for companies exploiting patented inventions or certain other innovati

protected by particular intellectual property (IP) rights.

Patent Box: A Catalyst to Promote PatentingInnovation & R&D in UK

Patent Box is an innovative scheme for promoting pate

innovation and R&D. This may even aid to the revival o

economic downswing.

Patent Box: The Concept in UK

The Patent Box allows companies to enjoy a reduced ra

corporation tax of 10% for profits from the exploitati

patented inventions and other forms of quali

intellectual property (IP). Thats a whopping discoun

the main corporation tax rate for 2013 which is 23%.

2. The reduced rate applies to a proportion of the profits derived from the licensing or sale of the patent rights, or from the sale of

patented invention or products which incorporate the patented invention. Profits derived from routine manufacturing

development functions, and profits derived from exploitation of brand and marketing intangible assets, are intended to

excluded.

3. The Patent Box is an optional regime which companies can elect into. The reduced rate of tax is delivered by providing

additional deduction in the corporation tax computation.

4. To minimise administrative costs and compliance burden, Patent Box profits for many claims can be calculated using a lar

formulaic approach. This is intended to identify in most circumstances a reasonable, albeit approximate, figure for profit deri

from the patent. Companies can instead however opt to identify the profit through a more bespoke calculation.

5. The next section of this introduction is a broad outline of the main concepts of the Patent Box regime. These are then explaine

more detail in the rest of this Technical Note, The main concepts are shown in the diagram below:

Patent Box Criteria:

It is also vital to understand the qualification criteria of the patents that may qualify to register themselves under the Patent Box schemeUK.

Patents must have been granted by an approved patent-granting body, including the UK Intellectual Property Office, European Pa

Office and designated European territories. Currently, patents registered in territories such as the USA, France, and Spain are

included under this scheme.

Further, there are a few noticeable points that the companies should keep in mind to assess whether their patents or products qualify un

the Patent Box Scheme of UK.

Either patent holder or another company in its group must have performed significant R&D activity to develop the patented inven

or its application; or

If the product was development by a group company and not the patent holder, then also the holder must have remained activ

involved in decision-making related to exploiting the patent. This allows flexibility for both group-wide activities and produincorporating purchased bundles of patents to quality.

Benefits of Patent Box Scheme

Patent Box as an initiative by UK government has been planned to promote innovation and encourage businesses to stay in UK and thus

assessing how declining R&D intensity in UK can be improved to reinstate position of UK companies in top Fortune 500 list.

The Patent Box deduces tax rate from 23% (decreasing to 20% from April 2015) to 10% on profits derived from any products that

incorporate patents and as per the forecasts of HM Treasury, is going to generate corporation tax revenues of worth ~1.1 billion. (Sourc

Now, it certainly becomes important to understand how patents either owned by the company or that of others can generate income.

Intellectual Property income from following sources can help in benefiting from the Patent Box scheme:

Patent royalties and income from licensing

Income from the sale of patents

Infringement income

Income from sales of products with patents

Sales of mixed patented & non-patented items

Notional Royalty patents used in processes & services

Leasing

Patent Pending

(Source: Patent Box: An industry report on incentivising UK innovation)

Summary

The whole idea behind the initiation of Patent Box scheme is to encourage UK companies to develop innovative products. It also aim

give the required stimulus to companies that dont hold patents. Such companies may reconsider their patenting policies a nd either us

license patents, so that they can also benefit from this scheme. In the long run, this incentivisation scheme will also encourage compan

to locate high-value jobs associated with development, manufacturing and exploitation of patents in UK. Large as well as small

medium-sized companies (SMEs) will, thus, hugely benefit and would want to stay in UK thereby giving the required impetus to the

economy.

It is drafted for the purpose of centralizing licensing in 17 categories of very critical drugs included in the proposed Third Schedule of

Act. Besides that, the bill also has a separate Chapter containing regulatory provisions for medical devices and more comprehen

provisions for regulating clinical trials and exports.

Once the bill is passed, the authority of Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation (CDSCO) to regulate imports, manufacturing

exports and State Regulating Authorities to regulate sale, stock and exhibition of medical devices will be clearly defined.

It will also set up the Central Drugs Authority (CDA) for regulating the drugs and cosmetics sector and strengthen the manpower,

infrastructure, medical device testing labs and training the regulators.

The Drugs and Cosmetics Bill 2013 will empower the Central government to make rules for -

Classification of medical devicesbased on the degree of risk associated with its use

Standards for different classes of medical devices

Procedures for assessment of conformity to standards and overseas inspections

Reporting adverse events

Post marketing surveillance

Recall of medical devices

The bill was introduced on August 29 and was later was referred to the Parliamentary standing committee on September 9, 2013 for

examination.

Government of India has allocated Rs.3000 crore in the 12th Five Year Plan for the development of medical device sector. There are plan

appoint 300 medical device officers and experts from the bio medical, bio materials, plastic engineering and electronic enginee

domains for overhauling the sector. To explore the international destinations, GOI also has plans to spend Rs.5 crore on professionals

international travel along with opening of overseas country offices.

Where Domestic Indian Pharmaceutical Industry Shall Focus Now?This bill is set to replace the Drugs and CosmeticsAct, 1940 and bring about a comprehensive

legislation for the regulation of medical device sector.

In the upcoming winter session of Parliament, Drugs and Cosmetics (Amendment) Bill,

2013 will be tabled. This bill is set to replace the Drugs and CosmeticsAct, 1940 and bring

about a comprehensive legislation for the regulation of medical device sector and incentivize

new innovations leading to competitive pricing.

Till 1990, according to the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center (NSCISC) of USA, there were ~12,000 cases of spinal cord inj

per year. In the UK, statistics collected from spinal cord injury centers reveal that every year ~1200 people were paralysed from SCI. T

situation in the developing countries was even worse as they do not have any established national trauma or SCI registries. Then, med

record keeping is also poorly managed in most of the hospitals in such countries. Nevertheless, it can be presumed based on the fact t

world population is increasing that the number of people living with SCI could be much higher than depicted by statistics. Moreover, as

injuries can vary in severity, individuals can manifest symptoms as minor as occasional pain all the way to complete paralysis.

Key Patents in This Domain

It is much evident that the sector of spinal implants and manufacturing platforms for these medical devices is booming. As such, compa

working in this area are patenting heavily.

Recently, Life Spine, Inc., which provides the technologically advanced manufacturing platforms to increase procedural efficiency

efficacy through innovative design, has been awarded following three patents by the United States Patent Trademark Office (USPTO).

US Patent Number Patent Brief

8,475,461 It is a patent for instruments used in installing multi-section

intervertebral spinal implants issued on Jul 2, 2013.

8,486,148 It is a patent for hinged spinal fusion cages issued on Jul 16,

2013.

8,512,407 It is a patent for expandable spinal interbody and

intravertebral body devices issued on Aug 20, 2013.

Life Spine, Inc. now owes a patent portfolio of 49 patents and more than 100 patent applications.

In future, motion-preserving spinal implants, such as artificial discs and dynamic stabilization constructs, will remain

in the focus.Following two patent applications in name of St. Francis Medical Technologies, Inc. belong to the same

technology area-

Spinal Cord Injuries: An Introduction & Some Statistics

Spinal cord establishes communication between the brain and the body and any injury to this vital human

organ greatly affects a persons sensory, motor and reflex messages. Due to spinal cord injury (SCI) th

person experiences either complete or incomplete dysfunction, based on whether any sensation occurs a

or below the level of injury. The most important is that each persons recovery from SCI is different.

These injuries, in general, are induced by trauma but injuries due to cancer, multiple sclerosis, arthriti

and osteoporosis are also common these days.

Spinal cord injuries affect may include the following:

Loss of movement & sensation

Loss of bowel and/or bladder control

Exaggerated reflex actions or spasms

Changes in sexual function and fertility

Pain or intense stinging sensation

Way Forward for Researchers in This Domain for New Innovation & Research

The spinal implant technology is a promising and an emerging technology. Henceforth, more patent filings must be done for invention

this area. Here, it is also important to assert that institutions, universities and scientific researchers carrying out research in this dom

must have a good idea of the technology landscape of this sector before investing efforts and money in its R&D. Filtering out the n

practical and far-fetched innovations from patent and non-patent literature is a daunting task. For that reason, they need help

professional patent search service providers. As such, patent searches, particularly, state-of-the-art searches and technology alert

Sagacious Research can greatly help researchers in gathering innovative ideas, identify core technologies & white spaces and gaps in

technology area. We offer valuable search findings in multiple languages after conducting extensive searches in over 90 countries to giv

clear picture of latest Intellectual Property trends.

Originally, medical device instruments were used only to correct spinal deformities but over the past 15 years, the use of internal fixat

with spinal implants in spinal fusions has dramatically increased. Many different products, such as rods, plates, i nterbody devices, ped

screws and interspinous process decompression devices etc. have become popular. The global market value of spinal implants mar

reached the mark of $5 billion in 2008.

The situation is such that rather than defending its case in court, it is speculated that HTC is going to withdraw this patent now. In present case, the patent claim is related to a group of four HTC handsets, including the HTC One SV and HTC Wildfire S.

Nokia, despite of fall in its market share in the mobile handset business, still holds 3.1 % share in the global smartphone market ahead

HTC that just holds 2.8% of the market share. Moreover, Nokia Corp. owns a very strong patent portfolio and its strongest support

evidence comes in the form of a licensing deal that it signed with Microsoft worth 1.65 billion euros. Licensing and litigation are the

areas in which a patent portfolio can prove its worth and Nokia stands high in both these areas. In the past, BlackBerry (earlier nam

Research In Motion) and ViewSonic have entered in non-SEP licensing deals with Nokia.

But now, HTC is the primary target of Nokia. Since May 2012, Nokia has filed approximately 50 different breaching claims against HT

the U.S., UK, Germany, and most recently also Italy. There are many highly technical patents among them, such as the ones HTC n

wants Qualcomm to work around so that it can sell its HTC One smartphone in US. If HTC manages to somehow sell its flagship produc

the U.S. despite an ITC exclusion order, then there would be considerably less pressure on the Taiwanese device maker, which litigates v

effectively, to settle in the short term. The relevant patents arent standard-essential, so they can be worked around in principle. Though

this point it is unknown that what the technical options HTC and Qualcomm are exploring, and whether those workarounds would resu

performance reduction or other degradations noticeable to end users.

Recently, Nokia has scored a win against HTC on Sept. 23 in Germany where court ruled that HTC has infringed two patents of No

Nokias patents (mentioned below) for addressing different radio frequencies and for removing errors in radio signals were infringed.

U.S. Patent No. 6,393,260on a method for attenuating spurious signals and receiver

U.S. Patent No. 7,415,247on a method and arrangement for transmitting and receiving RF signals through various radio interface

communication systems

These are also wireless patents but they arent standard-essential. A third patent, which covers tethering, was not found infringed.

Undoubtedly, Nokia is on the winning track and the recent infringement suits filed by the company indicate that the Finnish giant has

upper hand against HTC also will most likely force HTC to enter into a royalty-bearing non-SEP license deal, particularly to benefit fr

the business of HTCs Android-based devices.

Here we would like to update our readers that Nokias ability to continuously file and win so many infringement lawsuits agai nst HTC

others is largely accountable to their strong patent portfolio and is supported by efficient patent portfolio management and the fact that

Nokia on Suing Spree- Nokia vs. HTCNokia Corporation has sued HTC Corp. for infringing its 024 patent

A cease-fire of Nokia & HTC patent battle seems no-where on the cards, much

recently. Nokia Corporation has sued HTC Corp. for infringing its 024 patent over atechnology which is designed to assist broadcast voice and text messages

Broadcasting via voice and text messages is a very popular technology as it is a

powerful direct marketing tool. It is widely used by industry groups such as insurance

real estate, telemarketing, healthcare, direct sales, etc., to create leads or as a follow-

up method to their existing or past customers and/or current prospects. In emergency

situations, it can even save lives. This technology is used in all the present

smartphones and intellectual property rights over this technology and around

applications of this technology has been the frequent cause of patent wars between

smartphone companies.

company has adequately invested its resources in patent mining and infringement watch. Patent mining and infringement watch searc

analyze patents of a portfolio in both qualitative and quantitative manner to identify the licensable patents or patents which are most lik

to be infringed and ascertain that no products in the market are infringing upon a patent in the portfolio.

Then after, patent disputes between Apple and Nokia escalated. Nokia took the fight to the International Trade Commission in Jan, 2

and Apple also filed an ITC complaint against Nokia over 9 patents seeking to block U.S. imports of mobile phones.

Apple-Nokia patent fight continued and Nokia extended its complaints to Apples iPad. Nokia claimed that Apples products, including

iPad WiFi + 3G, use Nokiasintellectual propertyrelated to enhanced speech and data transmission, the use of positioning data

applications, and compact, increased-performance antenna designs. These include 3G, 2G, and Wi-Fi networking, built-in cameras, c

wheels, and some more complex technologies like a programmable voltage-controlled oscillator. In 2010, Nokia and Apple also took t

first German suit/countersuit to the Federal Patent Court of Germany when Apple for the first time had sued Nokia in UK and Germ

over 9 patents and it was countersued by Nokia over 4 patents. In 2010, Nokias share of the market had fell to 39.3% in the third qua

from 42.3% a year earlier. As such, analysts noted that Nokia just wants royalty payments from iPhone (and iPad) sales, rather than a

injunction. This would afford Nokia about $6-12 per iPhone and $10-17 per iPad. At that time, the strength of Nokiaspatent portfolio

its possible use in favor of the companys business was not realized.

That occurred in 2011, when Nokia filed a second ITC complaint against Apple alleging that Apple infringes upon additional Nokia pat

in virtually all products including its mobile phones, portable music players, tablets and computers. Those 7 Nokia patents in the n

complaint were related to Nokias pioneering innovations that Apple was using to create key features in its products in the a reas of m

tasking operating systems, data synchronization, positioning, call quality and the use of Bluetooth accessories. In mid-2011, thus, Ap

had to agree to pay Nokia an undisclosed one-time sum and recurring royalties for violating 46 of its patents.

Assuming that most of Nokias current royalty revenue comes from Apple and considering that iPhone sales are on rise every year,

certain that Nokia is benefitting hugely from its intellectual property. For the creation of such a strong patent portfolio, Nokia had sp

millions of dollars in R&D over the past decade. The Finnish tech giant realized this long time back that 4G LTE patents and other wirel

standard patents are likely to get more valuable with time as carriers around the world would eventually transit to the new wirel

standard supporting 4G making it a mandatory requirement that greater number of handsets use this platform. One of the pre-requis

for gathering such an insight of the technology domain is the know-how of the patent landscape that describe the patent situation f

specific technology in a given country, region or on the global level.

Nokia vs. Apple: An Epic Patent War between Two GiantsNokia Corporation has sued HTC Corp. for infringing its 024 patent

The patent war between Nokia and Apple began back in 2009 when Nokia

sued Apple over 10 patents related to devices compatible with GSM, UTMS

(3G WCDMA) and wireless LAN standards, and covering wireless data,

speech coding, security and encryption. Nokia alleged that all iPhone models

released since 2007 infringe on these patents. The suit was filed in a U.S.

District Court in Delaware.

Later, Apple countersued Nokia over 13 patents related to Apples basic

computing technologies in Dec, 2009.

Nokia must have taken an informed decision to do astate-of-the-art search for the technology of interest and analyzed its results to s

answers to questions such as, What is the pattern of patenting activity in this technology/domain? or What technology areas competi

are focusing on?, etc. However, such a detailed and comprehensive patent landscape analysis requires professional intervention. Sagaci

Research professional patent & IP search services can help find answers to the above questions in a surprisingly easy manner. We cre

quality patent landscape reports accompanying the state-of-the-art search results with further insights into innovation trends, diversit

solutions for a technical problem, etc. in area of our clients interest. We also facilitate the understanding of these, otherwise, com

research results by giving our recommendations based on the empirical evidence provided by the search and analysis. Thus, companies

not only get a snapshot of the patenting situation at a certain point in time for the technology area of their interest but also make inform
