The China National Intellectual Property Administration recently unveiled the winners of the 26th China Patent Awards, with 12 patents from Fujian Province securing prestigious honors this year.

Within this group, two companies based in Jinjiang City stood out by clinching two national-level patent accolades, showcasing the robust technological innovation capabilities and intellectual property development achievements of local enterprises.

Among the winners, Fujian Xingyi Intelligent Equipment Co., Ltd. was recognized with the China Patent Excellence Award for its "Multi-head Planetary Grinding Machine and Its Working Method," while 361 Degrees (China) Co., Ltd. and 361 Degrees (Fujian) Sports Goods Co., Ltd. jointly received the China Design Excellence Award for their "Shoe (3)" design.

These two national patent awards not only serve as a direct reflection of the continuously rising innovation capacity of Jinjiang's local businesses but also stand as vivid examples of the city's deep commitment to its intellectual property strategy and its efforts to invigorate creativity across society.

In recent years, Jinjiang has prioritized high-quality patent creation as a core focus, actively driving the transformation and upgrading of traditional advantageous industries such as textiles and footwear toward high-end and intelligent development, while fostering deep integration and synchronized growth between innovation and industrial progress.

The award-winning patent projects align precisely with the city's "4331" modern industrial system layout and echo its development direction of digital-intelligent transformation in traditional sectors and clustered growth in emerging industries, serving as a compelling microcosm of Jinjiang's solid progress in building a city with strong intellectual property rights.

Looking ahead, Jinjiang will continue to refine its comprehensive cultivation system for high-value patents, improve the integrated protection mechanism for rapid patent authorization and swift rights enforcement, deepen industry-academia-research collaboration and the application of patent achievements, and drive the efficient conversion of intellectual property into tangible productive forces, thereby laying a solid innovation foundation for the high-quality development of the real economy.
