However, high tech manufacturers are trying to overcome these challenges through innovations, launching new products and services, forging new partnerships, and acquiring new capabilities through mergers and acquisitions. Despite rapid change, the industry is poised to grow in the future fueled by factors like price erosion, higher per capita income and consumer attachments to iPads, tablets, smart phones and other mobile devices. The global high tech industry has a broad reach, so it can be defined in a number of ways. Capgemini’s definition of the industry comprises consumer electronics, semiconductors and solar, print and imaging, computer and peripherals, and software. This Capgemini research study assesses the global high tech industry and identifies both the challenges and opportunities the market presents for manufacturers.

Some Facts of High-Tech Patenting Michael Webb, Nick Short, Nicholas Bloom, and Josh Lerner NBER Working Paper No. 24793 July 2018 JEL No. L86,O34 ABSTRACT Patenting in software, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence has grown rapidly in recent years. Such patents are acquired primarily by large US technology firms such as IBM, Microsoft, Google, and HP, as well as by Japanese multinationals such as Sony, Canon, and Fujitsu. Chinese patenting in the US is small but growing rapidly, and world-leading for drone technology. Patenting in machine learning has seen exponential growth since 2010, although patenting in neural networks saw a strong burst of activity in the 1990s that has only recently been surpassed. In all technological fields, the number of patents per inventor has declined near-monotonically, except for large increases in inventor productivity in software and semiconductors in the late 1990s. In most high-tech fields, Japan is the only country outside the US with significant US patenting activity; however, whereas Japan played an important role in the burst of neural network patenting in the 1990s, it has not been involved in the current acceleration.

  • Technological Innovation in China's High-Tech Industry
    Technological Innovation in China’s High-Tech Industry Investigating Factors that Influence Technological Innovation Abstract China’s high-tech industry has witnessed dramatic growth in the past three decades. However, how to transform from "Made in China" to "Designed in China" remains problematic. China’s high-tech industry has much weaker performance in terms of technological innovation relative to its export volume and industry size. China’s domestic owned high-tech companies generally have inadequate emphasis on technological innovation. This research suggests several hypothetical factors that can influence the performance of technological innovation, and then applies statistical analysis to investigate these factors based on a data sample collected by the third High Performance Manufacturing project conducted in 10 countries since 2005. The analysis provides evidence that six variables influence the long-term or short term performance of technological innovation. At last, with more emphasis on the long term performance which contributes to the sustainable development of technologies, this research presents an application in Chinese “Shanzhai” industry, a special part of electronic industry in China. The analysis suggests that the emphasis on the factors described in the model helped some of these “Shanzhai” companies make progress with their technological innovation. Introduction: High-Tech Industry in China China’s high-tech industry has witnessed dramatic growth. China’s exports of high-tech products grew 33 percent annually from 1995 to 2008, with the value of export products increasing from 10 billion to 416 billion US dollars. High-tech exports, which now make up about 29 percent of total exports, have grown much faster than overall exports.

Stimson Center is a nonprofit, nonpartisan institution devoted to offering practical solutions to problems of national and international security. From the beginning, the Stimson Center has been committed to meaningful impact, a thorough integration of analysis and outreach, and a creative and innovative approach to problems. The Center has four basic program areas, including: Reducing the Threat of Weapons of Mass Destruction; Building Regional Security; Strengthening Institutions of International Peace and Security; and Linking Foreign High-Tech Trade, Technology & Security. These four program areas encompass work on a wide range of security issues, from Chemical and Biological Weapons Nonproliferation to Regional Security in Asia to the Future of Peace Operations. R&D in China RISKS, REWARDS, AND IMPLICATIONS FOR U.S.-CHINA RELATIONS FOREIGN HIGH-TECH R&D IN CHINA: for U.S.-China Relations and Implications Risks, Rewards, Propelled by open markets and economic reform, the 1990s brought unparal- leled growth and economic development to the People’s Republic of China. At the same time, but less widely known, China has begun to assume an influential role in the globalization of high-tech research and development (R&D). Consequently, the PRC is poised to become not only Asia’s assembly line, but also one of the Pacific Rim’s — and the world’s — centers of innovation. A growing number of the world’s leading high-tech multinationals have established R&D programs or centers in China, raising many questions for US policymakers regarding the benefits and risks of overseas R&D in terms of near- and long-term US security and economic interests.

  • Disruptive Technologies
    McKinsey Global Institute McKinsey Global Institute Disruptive technologies: Advances that will transform business, life, and the global economy May 2013 Disruptive technologies: Advances that will transform life, business, and the global economy The McKinsey Global Institute The McKinsey Global Institute (MGI), the business and economics research arm of McKinsey & Company, was established in 1990 to develop a deeper understanding of the evolving global economy. Our goal is to provide leaders in the commercial, public, and social sectors with the facts and insights on which to base management and policy decisions. MGI research combines the disciplines of economics and management, employing the analytical tools of economics with the insights of business leaders. Our “micro-to-macro” methodology examines microeconomic industry trends to better understand the broad macroeconomic forces affecting business strategy and public policy. MGI’s in-depth reports have covered more than 20 countries and 30 industries. Current research focuses on four themes: productivity and growth, the evolution of global financial markets, the economic impact of technology and innovation, and urbanization. Recent reports have assessed job creation, resource productivity, cities of the future, and the impact of the Internet. MGI is led by McKinsey & Company directors Richard Dobbs and James Manyika. Yougang Chen, Michael Chui, Susan Lund, and Jaana Remes serve as MGI principals. Project teams are led by a group of senior fellows and include consultants from McKinsey’s offices around the world. These teams draw on McKinsey’s global network of partners and industry and management experts. In addition, leading economists, including Nobel laureates, act as research advisers.
