Conclusion1. Intensely evaluate government spending on research and development2. Be conservative with government R&D spending3. Consider evaluating the following industries: computer and electronics,

chemical products, publishing industries, and motion pictures4. Invest in institutionalized innovation (education or programs) that can help

improve utility patent acceptance rate
