title: [Patent research as a way to ensure competitiveness of an object of economic activities].
abstract: Importance is shown of patent-associated studies at every stage of the life cycle of an object of economic activities. It is argued that a low level of patent-associated studies, failure to meet the deadline set for the completion thereof are responsible for an inadequate level of research activities, waste of time and resource, creation of worthless objects of intellectual property. Special stress is laid on the importance of implicit fulfillment of requirements of the state standards now in force in the sphere of intellectual property.
