Portfolio overview

Accenture Global Solutions Limited has been granted 1,520 US utility patents between 2016 and 2025, placing Accenture Global Solutions Limited at rank #283 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 114 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.4 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, Accenture Global Solutions Limited is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Accenture sits between Toray Industries, Inc. (1,543 patents, rank #279) and Marvell International Ltd. (1,491 patents, rank #287) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 67.1/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 1,228 grants, compared with 292 in the 2015–2019 window, a +321% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Accenture Global Solutions Limited's 19.4 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Accenture Global Solutions Limited against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
