As shown on the infographic, there are typically three types of patents in the United States: utility patents, design patents and plant patents. Furthermore, Innovate Product Design's infographic features an interesting patent statistics chart based on data from the United States Patent and Trademark Office that found that between 1963 and 2012, the number of patent applications and grants has doubled every 10 years.

Innovate was founded in the United Kingdom by Alastair Swanwick in 2001. He wanted to help inventors to design and develop new ideas because he realized it was difficult to find a company that can help develop new product ideas and provide the relevant intellectual property and marketing advice on a minimum budget. With over 10 years of experience, Innovate Product Design has expanded its team and today has offices located in the United States and United Kingdom.
