Taking advantage of the differences in patent application and disclosure systems in different countries, the following methods can be used to extend the global time to market of products: 1. **Strategic filing of patent applications**: - Adopt a phased filing strategy in different countries, take advantage of the differences in patent application deadlines in different countries, and control the time of disclosure. - Apply for patents in the target market first, and then apply in other countries based on the priority period to extend the overall application life cycle. 2. **Use provisional application and international application procedures**: - Adopt the PCT (Patent Cooperation Treaty) procedure to buy more preparation time for global patent applications (usually 30 months). - Through the provisional patent application strategy in the United States, first submit a provisional application and then submit a formal application within one year to extend the protection period. 3. **Delay patent publication**: - In some countries, you can choose to delay patent publication and postpone the disclosure of technical information as much as possible. - Use the "delayed examination" procedure to increase the examination time in certain countries, postpone patent authorization and delay disclosure. 4. **Continuous application**: - Subsequent applications are filed based on the initial patent application to update or refine the technical content, keep the application active, and extend the protection period. 5. **Select different application paths**: - Choose to use different application paths (such as accelerated review or normal procedures) according to the laws and regulations of specific countries in order to extend the preparation time of the product. 6. **Secret sales**: - Within the scope permitted by the laws of certain countries, the secret sales strategy is used to postpone the patent application without affecting the final protection. Through the above strategies, the different attributes of the patent systems of various countries can be reasonably planned and used to extend the time to market of global products in a coordinated manner, improve market preparation and product maturity, and deal with competitive relationships. It is important that a professional legal team is required to carry out precise planning and operation to ensure legal compliance and optimize economic benefits.
