O mito das patentes

Um artigo com informação muito interessante:
"Most awarded innovations are not patented...
Overall, we found that 269 awarded innovations (slightly less than 10%) were patented according to our matching criteria suggesting that the great majority of innovations were not patented. This percentage is slightly higher (12.56%) when  we consider only innovations that have been made by firms.
...
our findings reveal that patent protection, even in this context, is actually a much less used appropriability strategy than it is generally believed.
...
Our analysis has provided two types of evidence. First, a relative low number of important innovations are patented. Second, patent propensity tends to vary across industrial sectors and types of organization."
