Background EU studies: Studies covering the EU countries have looked at the contributions to GDP, salary levels and the number of employees in IPR-intensive industries. IPR-intensive industries are defined as those having an above-average use of IPR per employee, as compared with other IPR-using industries.
The EU-studies were published in 2013 (EPO and OHIM, 2013) and 2016 (EPO and EUIPO, 2016). Both reports are in PDF format.
