PORTLAND, Ore., Dec. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Global Technology Transfer Group, Inc. (GTT Group), a world leader in strategic patent analysis and patent transaction services, released its Third Quarter 2021 Patent Transaction Market Report (PTMR) this morning.

The third quarter PMI dropped slightly but remains higher than 12 months prior. Michael Lubitz, Managing Director & Founder of GTT Group comments: "Patent transactions saw a slight drop from last quarter, but the current market remains highly active, especially when viewing from a higher vantage. Large technology producers continued to grow their IP intensely in Battery Tech, AI, 5G, Blockchain, and many other burgeoning sectors."

The PMI or Patent Market Index decreased by 10% percent to finish the quarter at 110.8. While a drop, this level is still significantly above the 3 year average. Monitored secondary transaction volume decreased by 3.8% in the third quarter, remaining near the all time high seen 2 quarters ago.

The PLI or Patent Licensing Index dropped by 1.5% in the third quarter. Despite the recent small decrease, taking into account the recent year-long stretch of growth, the PLI managed to match and outperform the historic rebound on the S&P 500 over the same period.
