What this shows Aalto University Foundation Sr stamps GRANTS-SMALL, UPPER-Q, PHOTO-FINISH, CPC-WIDE, INNOV-PAR, CLAIMS-RICH, TYPE-FRNCORP, VEL-SURGE, BOOK-FULL. Volume places it #9,685 of 50,000; Innovation Score 58.6/100 sits in the top 4% of the PatentsView-derived corpus. Closest grant-volume peer on this plate is Abnormal Security Corporation (±0 grants).
Aalto University Foundation Sr has been granted 32 US utility patents between 2018 and 2025, placing Aalto University Foundation Sr at #9,685 of 50,000 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 64 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 16.5 claims per patent with primary concentration in D01F (CHEMICAL FEATURES IN THE MANUFACTURE OF ARTIFICIAL FILAMENTS, THREADS, FIBRES, BRISTLES OR RIBBONS; APPARATUS SPECIALLY ADAPTED FOR THE MANUFACTURE OF CARBON FILAMENTS). As a Foreign Corporation, Aalto University Foundation Sr is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Aalto sits between Ateme (32 patents, rank #9,695) and Alfaisal University (32 patents, rank #9,703) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 58.6/100 blends portfolio volume, grant velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Grant cadence records the difference between two grant-year windows. Between 2020 and 2024 the company received 20 grants, compared with 3 in the 2015–2019 window, a +567% shift in five-year grant velocity. Both windows cover five complete grant years; the latest PatentsView year is a partial release and is excluded from this comparison, though it still appears in the yearly table and chart below. Grant timing can lag the related application by years, so this comparison does not establish current R&D spending, strategic intent, or a company’s application activity. The Foreign Corporation classification provides context for the assignee record, not a conclusion about its business strategy.
Claim depth and technology breadth describe this aggregate record. Aalto University Foundation Sr's 16.5 average claims per patent is an average count, not a measure of claim scope, legal strength, enforceability, or design-around risk. The record spans 64 CPC subclasses. Combined with portfolio volume, these figures let readers compare the documented grant records of assignees in similar technology classes.
