Abstract:To review and grasp the development of intellectual property pledge financing in China, this study utilizes the literature measurement and visualization analysis software to construct a knowledge map of important literature included in the core journals, CSSCI, and CSSCD in CNKI. It explores the research focus, core authors and collaborating institutions, as well as the cutting-edge topics from its inception to the present. The research results show that the study of intellectual property pledge financing in China can be divided into three stages: the initial budding period (1996~2005), the vigorous development period (2006~2013), and the stable development period (2014~2022). The research focus in different time periods all demonstrate a close connection with national policies and the characteristics of the times. Finally, future research trends and focuses are proposed.
