Abstract: The United States Patents and Trademarks organization (USPTO) and the European Patents Union (EPO) are two notable regulating bodies that show a great deal of heterogeneity in their patent systems (Adams, 2016). The differences between the two bodies are largely attributed to legal frameworks and policies that govern similar industries in the two regions. Overall, there are notable statistical differences in the number of patent applications in the United States and the European Union. This paper aims at discussing the statistical results of patent applications comparison between the USA and the European Union.
