Amazon Makes Its Mark In Thomson Reuters 2015 Top 100 Innovators List

Online commercial center Amazon.com Inc made its debut in 2015 Thomson Reuters top 100 worldwide innovators list.

Amazon joined the list leaving International Business Machines Corp (IBM.N), the world's biggest technology services company, out of the list. The giant retailer company joins the pioneer list for the first time for innovations in data centers, gadgets, electronic methods, and systems, according to its latest reports.

The Thomson Reuters Top 100 global innovators program distinguishes innovators annually through an in-depth analysis in view of a series of patent-related measurements that analyzes what it means to be truly innovative, as reported by Reuters.

There are 27 organizations present in this list that are dropped from this rundown this year including, AT&T, IBM, Simens, and Xerox.

"For IBM, although they regularly top the list of U.S Patentees by volume of patents each year, the top 100 global innovators listing evaluates not just volume, but also the success, globalization, and impact", said Bob Stembridge, an analyst with Thomson Reuters IP & Science.

Japan and the United States are innovation hot spots and chemical, semiconductor and electronic parts and cars are top inventive commercial enterprises, as indicated by the report. Thomson Reuters investigators studied Silicon Valley surprisingly for the first time to see which organizations are driving in the region.

The top Bay area innovators list shows that 11 companies cover with the main 100 worldwide pioneers, showing that 31% of leading U.S innovators and 11% of world's top innovators are situated in San Fransico Bay Area, as reported by Business Insider.

"Both Uber and Tesla do innovate, but not at a sufficient level to feature in the top 100 list of innovative organizations around the globe as measured by patent metrics by volume, success, globalization, and impact. They neither have sufficiently large portfolios to qualify for inclusion with less than 100 granted inventions during 2010-2014", Stembridge said.

In the other news, Amazon has launched its innovation marketplace with a boom in the United Kingdom.

Customers can now get access to a portion of startup scene's most recent and updated equipment, food and wellbeing products as Amazon's curated Launchpad gateway is now exclusively live in the United Kingdom after the United States, reports The Next Web.
