Also, a United Nations report on patents ranked Israel top among other countries in the Middle East in terms of the number of patents filed. The 2009 World Intellectual Property Indicators, released by the United Nations affiliated World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), reveals that Israel ranks in the top 20 countries globally, despite a decrease of 5.8% in Israeli patent registration in the period covered by the report.

A majority of the patents are for medical technology, such as biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. Other fields with a large number of patents include telecommunications and semiconductors. Israel also ranked number 12 globally on the index for patents filed per gross domestic product. WIPO also named Israel as one of 15 countries in the world issuing patents that are automatically recognized and accepted by all countries around the world.
