What this shows Ankom's Innovation Score is 40.4/100 (top 36% 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.

Where Ankom's grants concentrate

Ankom Technology Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 100% of grants classified under G01N (Investigating OR Analysing Materials BY Determining Their Chemical OR Physical Properties). By volume, Ankom sits between Angelcare Canada Inc. and Ansaldo Energia S.P.A..

Ankom's three-year grant acceleration

Ankom Technology Corporation shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 1 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.
