AI innovation tracked via trademarks, complementing patent data

A new research note proposes using trademark data as a complementary metric to patents for understanding Artificial Intelligence (AI) innovation. The authors argue that AI trademarks can reveal how companies leverage AI technologies to develop new products and services, offering a timely and globally accessible data source across all economic sectors. The paper presents initial findings from an empirical study of Italian firms and discusses the potential applications of AI trademarks for analyzing AI development and diffusion. AI

IMPACT Provides a novel framework for tracking AI development and diffusion, potentially offering deeper insights into commercialization strategies.
