There are more and more patents associated with female inventors

According to the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), in 2000, 9 percent of international patent applications could be tied to a female inventor, while by 2020, that proportion had risen to 16.5 percent.
It is a proven fact that encouraging the employment of women in innovation and intellectual property has many benefits. Examining women’s patent participation, it is clear that women specialize in certain areas. (origo)
