What this shows Alfasigma's Innovation Score is 37.2/100 (top 44% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Alfasigma?

Each dot is one of Alfasigma’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Alfasigma’s own 12.9 claims/patent is at or below the 16.9 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Alfasigma's grants concentrate

Alfasigma S.P.A. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 12 CPC subclasses with 95% of grants classified under A61K (Preparations FOR Medical, Dental OR Toiletry Purposes). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (6 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, Alfasigma sits between Afilias Limited and Amogy Inc..

Alfasigma's three-year grant acceleration

Alfasigma S.P.A. shows 8 grants in 2022–2024 against only 8 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
