Anyone can file US, European, or Chinese patents without local ties
“Innovators all over the world can get a patent in the US. You don't have to be a US citizen. You don't have to have a US company. You don't have to have any US ties. Similarly, anyone who, even if they don't live in Europe or have a European tie, can get a pat…”

Weisbrot: Heavy taxation and bureaucracy make starting startups in Lisbon difficult
