The process of filing patent applications in the view of ICT inventors

This article analyzed the patent files of the National Commission of Nuclear Energy, CNEN, at the National Institute of Industrial Property - INPI (U.S. Intellectual Property Commission - CIPC). The following institutions were considered: the Institute for Energy and Nuclear Research - IPEN and the Nuclear Technology Development Center. The process of patent requests, under the view of ICT inventors, was verified. From these results, an increase in the register requests was found, with a stable number of inventors. Hence, it is worth highlighting the necessity to strengthen the dissemination of the legislation, as well as to show the advantages the Inventor would have by presenting a curriculum with many patents.
