Clarivate Analytics partners with IP Australia

Clarivate Analytics has partnered with IP Australia by providing its enhanced patent data to augment its Source IP database.

The enhanced Derwent patent data will be available for a number of patents currently listed on the Source IP national initiative. The initiative was launched by IP Australia in November 2015 to help expose potential collaboration opportunities to Australian businesses seeking to work with public sector research partners and to facilitate quick and easy contact. The main goal of the initiative is to increase investment in public sector IP.

Source IP will expand its current Australian patent data with additional patent fields from the enriched patent data from Clarivate Analytics, specifically the Derwent World Patents Index (DWPI). The addition of DWPI will enable industries to search and comprehend available patents, identify what patents can be licensed from Australian universities to strengthen their own research and development efforts, and identify potential research partners.

Source IP currently features research expertise from over 67 research organisations including Commonwealth research organisations, universities, medical research institutes and cooperative research centres.

“We have always strongly supported the Australian Government’s National Innovation and Science Agenda. This includes supporting the Source IP initiative with our enhanced DWPI patent data as part of our continuous efforts at Clarivate Analytics to promote greater academia–industry collaboration within the innovation communities around the world,” said Jeroen Prinsen, Vice President and Head of Australasia and Southeast Asia at Clarivate Analytics.

Patricia Kelly, IP Australia’s Director General, commented on the contribution from Clarivate, “We’re extremely privileged to have Clarivate Analytics provide us with the Derwent abstracts. These abstracts help strengthen Source IP, which is a powerful tool helping connect IP rights holders with Australian businesses. The Derwent abstracts have increased the chance of investment in public sector IP, potentially helping many different publicly funded research parties.”
