Apple has been monopolizing attention in recent days with its multiple announcements. The Apple brand distinguished itself by successively presenting the iPad mini 7, the Mac mini M4 and theMacBook Pro M4. All of these devices are compatible with Apple Intelligence, the “personal intelligence system that helps you communicate, work and express yourself», as the American company describes it.Unsurprisingly, an OnDeck study places Apple as one of the most innovative companies on the planet.
Apple is one of the most innovative companies in the world behind IBM, Qualcomm and Alphabet
OnDeck has just published a study on the most innovative American companies. “We determined which U.S. companies received the most patents at the United States Patent Office (USPTO) in 2023 and noted inventor location for all patents granted to U.S.-based inventors in 2023. Finally, we combined these numbers with demographic data from the United States Census Bureau and ranked states and cities based on the number of patents issued by local inventors per 10 000 inhabitants», Explains the American company specializing in small business loans.
IBM is at the top of the ranking with its 3,953 patents filed in 2023, just ahead of Qualcomm and its 3,886 patents. The Cupertino company's major competitor, Alphabet, occupies third place on the podium with 2,579 patents filed.Apple has 2,568 for the year 2023.This data collected in February 2024 rather highlights the Apple brand, which part of the community criticizes for a lack of innovation. The iPhone has been singled out for precisely this reason.
Obviously, apatent filing, such as that of the modular iPhone, does not mean that an idea will materialize into a concrete project, the result of the study must therefore be put into perspective.Note that Cupertino, where Apple Park is located, is in third place among the most innovative cities, behind Mountain View and Palo Alto.
