Hi I wonder how valuable patents are for EB/O visas? I have worked 10+ in a global tech company, through which I am named on about 20 US patents. I don't have external visibility except for through those patents. How are patents judged when it comes to these visas? Are they enough to prove what needs to be proven?
Patents are just the starting point of the analysis because patents in and of themselves don't say anything about impact or significance so the next step is to try to understand the impact/significance of the patents through usage and citations, for example.
