Where China's grants concentrate

China Three Gorges University is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 57.1% of grants classified under Y02A (Technologies FOR Adaptation TO Climate Change). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2016. By volume, China sits between Chengdu Sioeye Technology Co., Ltd. and Chosen Co., Ltd..

China's three-year grant acceleration

China Three Gorges University shows 3 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.
