Patent information held by the NZ Intellectual Property Office, including patent applicants, inventors, addresses, patents numbers, classification codes & classes and WO and PCT information.
Patent information is already somewhat available via patent searches on the NZIPO website, but are limited to 500 results and results are poorly formatted making them difficult to use with analytic software.
Analysis of patent data has been shown to be an important part of understanding innovation. Other patent offices (e.g. US, Japan, Europe) make complete data sets available for analysis, however, this data does not give a full picture with respect to New Zealand.

I am looking into the impact of taxes on innovation (which I am hoping to use patent filings to measure). With this, I am hoping to access a data set that has information on patent filings (dates and amounts) for the last 40 years. Please reach out if you can provide this.

I need the data to see how the total application of patents has contributed to the change in the total production factor of new zealand. I need that information for my project about the economy of new zealand
