Where do biotechnology inventors live?

As an offshoot of PatentStat, I’ve assembled a set of graphs of patent inventor locations, focusing in 33 industry sectors.

Here are the maps for biotechnology:

  1. Reinhard,
    It’s actually a combination of the two 🙂 Each inventor location is given fractional ‘ownership’ of a patent. So, if a patent has 1 US inventor, 1 French inventor, and 2 South African inventors, then South Africa gets .5 credit for the patent, and the US and France get .25 each.
