TAIPEI, Taiwan, Feb. 25 /PRNewswire-Asia/ -- Thomson Reuters, the world's leading source of intelligent information for businesses and professionals, announced today the launch of Thomson Innovation(SM), the international award-winning premier intellectual property (IP) research and analysis solution ( www.thomsoninnovation.com ) to enhance productivity and decision making for enterprises and IP, legal and R&D professionals in Taiwan.

Thomson Innovation was most recently named one of the 100 best information technology (IT) projects of 2008 by Infoworld, an International Data Group IT online media and events business. Earlier in 2008, Thomson Innovation was recognized by R&D Magazine as one of the top 100 most technologically significant products introduced to the marketplace in the past year.

Thomson Innovation integrates IP, scientific literature, business data and news with analytic, collaboration and alerting tools. Researchers, information professionals, attorneys and analysts can simultaneously search global patent data, Taiwan and Asian patent sources, scientific literature, as well as business and news content to help their companies inspire innovation, drive strategy, increase productivity and gain a critical competitive advantage.

As the world's leading provider of Asia-Pacific patent content in English including Japanese full-text, Korean abstracts and editorially-enhanced abstracts of Chinese utility models and Chinese applications from 2007 to present, Thomson Innovation helps customers effectively track and manage global activity.

Thomson Innovation supports strategic IP decision making through powerful analysis and visualization tools, such as charting, citation mapping and search result ranking. The tracking functionality enables the centralized control of managing research done across an organization, including reporting options for client charge backs and cost allocation.

Customers also benefit from powerful functionality such as the ThemeScape landscape visualization tool which enables at-a-glance view of search results including first-level patent data, value-added patent information from Derwent World Patents Index(R) (DWPI), and scientific literature (comprising Web of Science(R), Current Contents Connect(R), INSPEC(R) and ISI Proceedings).
