WIPO: Innovation Gender Parity Gap Shrinking Slowly

WIPO’s April World IP Day theme was “Women and IP: Accelerating Innovation and Creativity.” This week, they followed up with a detailed report showing that the percentage of women inventors is increasing, but gender parity is decades away and will vary substantially by region.

Only 38 More Years to Go

  • At the current pace, we’ll close the overall gender gap in international patenting by 2061. 
  • North America is expected to bridge the gender gap in patenting first by 2055 followed closely by Asia in 2056.
  • Latin America and the Caribbean will close the gap in 2068, while Europe and Oceania will take longer, with a projected time of 65 years (2088).
