What this shows China's Innovation Score is 31.8/100 (top 61% 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.
China ENFI Engineering Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 40% of grants classified under C22B (PRODUCTION AND REFINING OF METALS ; PRETREATMENT OF RAW MATERIALS). Peak complete grant year is 2019 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2018. By volume, China sits between Changzhou Tronly New Electronics Materials Co., Ltd. and Cipher Trace, Inc..
China ENFI Engineering Corporation shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 5 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.
