Amsterdam, the Netherlands March 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Royal Philips (NYSE: PHG, AEX: PHIA), a global leader in health technology, today announced that it is one of the leading patent applicants at the European Patent Office (EPO).

In 2023, Philips improved the health and well-being of 1.9 billion people with its innovations.
With 607 MedTech patent applications in 2023, Philips is the second largest applicant in EPO's Patent Index 2023 in the field of medical technology. In total, Philips contributed 1,299 patent applications across various domains, solidifying its standing among the top 10 patent filers overall.
Roy Jakobs, CEO of Royal Philips, said "At Philips, our purpose is to improve people’s health and well-being through meaningful innovation.
