Intellectual property use in Kazakhstan: Statistics

This chapter reviews the available statistical evidence on the use of intellectual property in Kazakhstan. The chapter analyses the uptake of different types of intellectual property in Kazakhstan: patents, utility models, trademarks, industrial designs, geographical indications and copyrights. It draws on data from Kazakhstan’s National Institute of Intellectual Property (NIIP), the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), and the World Bank’s World Development Indicators. Kazakhstan’s performance is compared to that of other economies, with particular attention to neighbouring member countries of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU).
