According to data, Xinjiang's total foreign trade volume grew by 19.9 percent year-on-year to 520.37 billion yuan last year, exceeding 500 billion yuan for the first time.

A series of measures aimed at expanding Xinjiang's foreign trade contributed to sustainable growth. In 2025, Xinjiang's cross-border e-commerce exports grew by 232.8 percent, while cross-border imports grew by 68.5 percent.

Beijing, January 23 (Xinhua) — The number of valuable invention patents in mainland China will reach 2.29 million by the end of 2025. Their growth rate was 2.2 percentage points higher than the overall growth rate of invention patents in the country, the State Intellectual Property Administration of China reported on Friday.

According to the agency, by the end of 2025, the number of valid patents for inventions issued in mainland China will reach 5.32 million.

The agency also reported that the share of valuable invention patents in the total number of valid invention patents in mainland China in 2025 was 43.1 percent, which is 2.9 percentage points more than in 2020.

“This reflects the continued growth in the share of patents for inventions that have higher technological complexity, greater market value, and more stable intellectual property rights protection,” Liang Xinxin, head of the Strategic Planning Department of the aforementioned agency, said at a press conference.

Around 70 percent of valuable invention patents are in strategically important emerging industries. The fastest growth was seen in areas such as information technology management, computer technology, and medical technology, where artificial intelligence-related patents occupy one of the leading positions globally.

In 2025, the number of valuable patents for inventions per 10,000 people reached an average of 16, exceeding the target of 12 patents set for the period of the 14th five-year plan for economic and social development of the country (2021-2025), the department noted.

Noting that it serves as an important indicator for measuring innovation performance, Liang Xinxin said the "average ownership" indicator is intended to guide innovation efforts from quantity to quality.

"In the next five years, we will guide innovative companies to prioritize patent quality and develop more key valuable invention patents, promoting the development of new-quality productive forces," Liang Xinxin explained. -0-
