Description 208-212
Start-up companies represent a powerful engine of the innovation process. The current study aims to establish a better
understanding of the Start-up ecosystem in providing innovative healthcare solutions through the lens of intellectual
property and relate it to policy gaps for supporting the Start-up ecosystem in India. This study found that about
397 healthcare Start-up companies have been established after 1 January 2010. The Questel Orbit database was used to
conduct a patent search for the patents filed by these Start-ups from 1 January 2010 to 1 May 2020. A total of 3527 patents
were retrieved and analyzed thoroughly to generate insights on the year-wise patent filing trend, geographical patent filing
density, top aggressive patent filers, sector-wise filing density and a glimpse ofthe patent filing culture of healthcare Startups
in India. The result shows that major filing has been done in the field of pharmaceuticals and biotechnology; and major
healthcare market is the USA. Despite the Start-up culture being relatively new in India, the country’s healthcare Start-ups
are among the top 10 patent filers globally. It is observed that Verily Life Sciences is the top healthcare patent filer globally
and SigTuple is the top patent filer from India.
