Following the existing literature on risks and intellectual property (IP) risks, we define patent risks as the lack of understanding of the distribution of patents that lead to losing a key patent, increased research and development costs, and, potentially, infringement litigation. This paper aims to propose an explorative approach to investigating patent risks in the target technology field by integrating social network analysis and patent analysis. Compared to previous research, this study makes an important contribution toward identifying patent risks in the overall technological field by employing a patent-based multi-level network model that has not appeared in existing methodologies of patent risks. In order to verify the effectiveness of this approach, we take artificial intelligence (AI) as an example. Data collected from the Derwent Innovation Index (DII) database were used to build the patent-based multi-level network on patent risks from market, technology, and assignee perspectives. The results indicate that the lack of international collaborations among assignees and industry–university–research collaboration may lead to patent collaboration risks.

The ContiRoadAttack 2 Gran Turismo touring sport tire will be original equipment on the new BMW R 1200 RT. Heavyweight touring motorcycles like the BMW pose a particular set of challenges for tires, which is why Continental engineers in Korbach have included the ContiRoadAttack 2 Gran Turismo especially for this vehicle class in the product range. The tire's most outstanding characteristic is the innovative structure of the carcass. A reinforced design with a second carcass layer delivers enhanced stability and easy handling for heavyweight bikes. Wear resistance was also improved, and the tire mileage is now even better. A spin on the new tires drives home to any biker the technical refinement of the ContiRoadAttack 2 Gran Turismo Easy handling, safe driving control, and clear feedback are all the result of Continental's motorcycle tire development.
