March 16, 2005 Report On Technology Invention: 2005 Invention Rides A Post-Bubble Decline by Ryan Hudson, Tom Pohlmann with G. Oliver Young

This is an excerpt

Executive Summary

Forrester and its research partner Evalueserve recently revisited our January 2004 analysis of global patent data across software, data center technology, telecommunications technology, and emerging-technology markets such as nanotechnology and RFID. Analyzing nearly 50,000 patents published between 2002 and 2004, we found that software and telecom inventions, while still accounting for a vast majority of new developments, led an overall post-bubble decline in the number of published technology patents. Emerging markets like nanotechnology show promise if companies can establish Innovation Networks to bring university-developed technologies to market.
